Hi!
I have installed siduction onto my desktop as well as installing at
long last my new Creative Audigy sound card. I have the KDE desktop
and my kernel is 3.1-6.towo.2-siduction-686.
I am having trouble getting the microphone to work. It is plugged
into the blue socket on the sound card which the manual says is for
Line In or microphone. arecord does not produce any sound with the
command
arecord -Ddefault:CA0106 -d10 test.wav
the command
aplay -Ddefault:CA0106 test.wav
certainly produces a background hiss, but no actual input.
I have a:
00:07.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP72XE/MCP72P/MCP78U/MCP78S
High Definition Audio (rev a1)
builtin in the M4N98TD EVO mobo.
I just went through this exercise of getting the mic to work and I
found that in alsamixer F4 'capture' has to be turned up, specifically,
Rear Mic 81 Rear Mic Boost 53 Capture 81 Capture
1 81 Digital 71 Input Source Rear Mic
But I just noticed that on a mondo copy of this system 'digital' does
not show up and that makes the mic work poorly. Who knows what happened
to 'digital' :-(
Rebooted and now 'digital' is back:
...
Simple mixer control 'Digital',0
Capabilities: cvolume penum
Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
Limits: Capture 0 - 120
Front Left: Capture 104 [87%] [22.00dB]
Front Right: Capture 104 [87%] [22.00dB]
...
and now the mic records good again.
