For testing purposes (and because I'm pretty careless most of the time) I'm
running everything as root, so I wouldn't think permissions is the problem. 
Now, Icecast isn't running on root, but on it's own limited user, but, you
followed up with...

So if it's not the Icecast server, then ices has all the permissions it wants.

But, for thoroughness sake, I'm going to alter the permissions on the dsp
devices right now.

Oh, and as for configuration... well, I'm not really sure.  THis card seems to
be from some sort of age bordering on the paleolithic, so I'm willing to
acknoledge that it's configured wrong but in all other applications, the cards
are working properly so I'm weary.

Thanks for the tip!
