 Result: very bad audio, distortion

 {{{
 $ ffplay -debug 1 -f alsa -ac 2 -i hw:0,0
 }}}
 Result: statics after almost every bip.

 More tests with other applications:
 '''Audacity'''
 With Alsa, input: default then pulse then ALC892 (hw:0,0)
 Result: with these 3 different parameters, audio is perfect.

 '''recordmydesktop'''
 input: DEFAULT
 result: audio is perfect.

 '''gnome-sound-recorder 2.29.91'''
 Record from input: Capture
 format flac, ogg, pm3
 Result: with these 3 different formats, audio is perfect.

 '''arecord'''
 arecord -f cd -t wav out.wav
 Result: audio is perfect.

 '''VLC'''
 input hw:0,0
 Result: static after every bip.
