Output playback silence occurred in one device (Roland INTEGRA-7 on higher
sample rates) which had the line IMPLICIT_FB_FIXED_DEV and needed
IMPLICIT_FB_BOTH_DEV.  So it's the opposite situation.  Capture issues,
such as yours, with arecord were exactly what I saw when a device used
IMPLICIT_FB_BOTH_DEV while needing IMPLICIT_FB_FIXED_DEV instead.

Here's one of my previous examples of a device not compatible with
IMPLICIT_FB_BOTH_DEV:

I'm sorry if that caused confusion.  It does seem your issue could be the
very same as the VG-99's above.  That is, a device without "Asynchronous"
"Synch Type" for either of its "IN" or "OUT" endpoints.  In that case,
IMPLICIT_FB_FIXED_DEV should work.

Thanks, and sorry,
