[Icon-tech] recording while using headphones

[Blake Galbraith]

Oh... Wow. It's been a while since I've experimented with something like that.
I would try
amixer --help
As for connecting your headset to the Icon, how very interesting! I
believe, however, the Icon only found the hardware, and does not know
how to interface with it. I could be wrong, however.

Good luck! If you need help, ask me, and I'll do my best to answer it.
