Default Darkice / Linux problem

I'm about to get violent with some hardware... Perhaps one of you who use Darkice here can help calm me down!

Trying to set up darkice for a feed, and it just won't run. My config seems fine compared against the dozens I've found online, and the sound card is working, but all I get is this when run with full verbosity:
Code:
DarkIce 0.19 live audio streamer, http://darkice.tyrell.hu/
Copyright (c) 2000-2007, Tyrell Hungary, http://tyrell.hu/

Using config file: /etc/darkice.cfg
28-Jul-2009 17:06:42 Using OSS DSP input device: /dev/scanaudio1
28-Jul-2009 17:06:42 encoding
28-Jul-2009 17:06:42 scheduler high priority 99
28-Jul-2009 17:06:42 Using POSIX real-time scheduling, priority 98
28-Jul-2009 17:06:42 0 bytes transfered to the encoders
28-Jul-2009 17:06:42 reverted to original scheduling
28-Jul-2009 17:06:42 encoding ends
I have even tried setting up a simple record-to-file config, that one does the same thing.

The ONE hit I found in Google that matches this exactly, no one responded to the person's question. He apparently stumbled across a solution, but what he thought was the answer (and posted in the forum) wasn't it.

Either this software works perfectly for everyone else, or they're really good at covering their tracks...!

Hoping someone here will either know of something to try, or of a place to find help!

Now maybe I'll get lucky and stumble across the answer...

More info: I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 on an Atom-based PC. Sound card is a cheapie USB one, but I've also tried the onboard Intel one as well with same results.

darkice.cfg:
Code:
[general]
duration = 0
bufferSecs = 5

[input]
device		= /dev/scanaudio1
sampleRate	= 22050
bitsPerSample	= 8
channel		= 1

[icecast=0]
bitrateMode	= cbr
bitrate		= 32
quality		= 0.8
server		= <rr server>
port		= 80
password	= <pwd>
mountPoint	= <mount point>

Ahh... Now, don't I feel stupid now!

The problem is, "icecast=0" should have been "icecast-0" - at least, it tried to connect then. I needed to make it icecast2, so "icecast2-0".

Funny thing is, I made the exact same mistake on the save-to-file script! I put "file=0" instead of "file-0"! At least I'm consistent...!

Feed is now up and running. Cool! Just have to make a pad for the audio (cheapo USB soundcard is mic-only, no line-in).
