aplay DOES work on 12.02 linaro-ubuntu, however arecord doesnt seem to work.
a[lay Front_Center.wav (using audio over jack worked for me)

I also observed that sound settings dialog doesnt show changes in signal strength when speaking over mic while its connected, however, it does show varying signal while connecting/disconnecting the mic over jack, which makes me feel that my audio jack is faulty which need not be the reason for arecord failure.

The last tracking build used for testing in comment #16 uses the 3.2 kernel, which we will not touch.

We are investigating moving the android tracking build to tilt-tracking or tilt-3.3. Audio rec+play work on 3.3 for both the 4430 and 4460.
