What filesystem are you using and what kernel version? For more info, see:

Anyway, safest is to record to .raw, but ecasound can also write +2GB date
to wav files. This is not 100% according to spec, so if you need to
interoperate with some specific programs, test first. At some point I'll
integreate libsndfile support which will provide read/write to real 64bit
wav files (the w64 format).
