If you use arts try:
arecord -D hw:1,0 -r96000 -c2 -f S16_LE | artsdsp aplay -B -
+You can also try mplayer:
+mplayer radio://95.23/capture -radio adevice=hw=1.0:arate=96000 -rawaudio rate=96000
+Of course, you should place right "adevice=hw=x.x" option, and you can read
+man mplayer to know more about others parameters. Mplayer handles both v4l2-radio
+control and sound redirecting, that's why this method is interesting.
