Thanks for the input, Steffen!

As I do not "speak" linuxeese all that well, I'm afraid that I did not 
understand all the info you provided.
I have not considered downloading and installing an alsa-utils package 
that is an alternative to the one distributed with FC2.  Nor have I seen 
anything previously that suggested use of a hard link between arecord 
and aplay might be necessary for one or the other to work.

Could I ask you to elaborate a bit more on your link and/or the ATrpm 
package?

The FC2 alsa-utils package includes both arecord and aplay.
