Long term, if I manage to get it working, I was hoping to record audio
material from either a freeview box, or from a DAB receiver - the CD audio
excursion is just to see if I can get the recorder to work.

The SB card IS the default device - there is no other audio device

Yup, but you'll have to choose either the analogue or digital input as
record input.
