A timer? gnome-sound-recorder has a recording timeout as a preference, could 
be what you're running into....

Dunno qarecord, I use gnome-sound-recorder to record the .WAV. I set the 
timeout for 20-some minutes (long enough to record the side), then let it 
run...

If you're restoring vinyl, I HIGHLY recommend the Gnome-Wave-Cleaner,

A fantastic program that will dnoise and de-click .WAVs recorded from vinyl.
