Comment(by dsd):

 This broke recording (#9526)

 The .asoundrc is mostly redundant: dmix is being used by default anyway,
 as is slowptr. I'm not sure about the period and buffer size values, but
 through some experimentation, the relevant thing seems to be the change of
 rate from the default 48000 to 44100.

 so I'm going to drop this .asoundrc file and instead we'll change the dmix
 default rate to 44100 (inside /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf, modified from the
 build script). but i'm still hopeful that we can figure this out properly,
 this is still a hack...
