Jonas,

I've gone back into Audacity config and checked my ALSA drivers. They 
only combination that does not give the error message beside OSS is...

Playback device>ALSA:SB PCI512 [CT4790]: ADC Capture/Standard PCM 
Playback (hw:0,0)

Record device>ALSA:SB PCI512 [CT4790]: ADC Capture/Standard PCM Playback 
(hw:0,0)

I'll try recording with this tonight.
