I installed the HifiBerry driver as specified. The Board is recognized and the audio output works fine. Just the audio input seems to be not working. I checked if the microphone is muted but I can't recognize any bad setting. Here is the output of the amixer command:

This is the arecord -l output:

This is the command that I run for recording the audio:
arecord -vv -d 10 -f cd -t wav -D hw:1,0 foobar.wav

The LED recording lamp on the Hiffyberry is continuously red but the sound level is shown to be zero.
I can't find the reason why no input can be recorded..
