aa, ok. So my guess was definitely wrong...

Hmm, it is really weird you get different behaviour with arecord and
ecasound. Could you send me a private mail with a log of running ecasound
with full debugging (-ddd)?

Some cards in fact do have rather bizarre limitations (channel count
and/or sample width impact the possible values for other settings), but
this is not very common. Plus in your tests, you've requested the very
same params with both arecord and ecasound, so there shouldn't be any
difference.
