this is one of those stupid codecs that has hardwired connections between ADCs and the mics. Lenovo and Dell use these. stupid vendors. you can do this: $ aucat -l -s default -c 0:1 -C 0:1 -s internal -c 2:3 -C 2:3 that gives you two sub-devices, "default", and "internal". you can then specify which device to use with the AUDIODEVICE environment variable. "default" is the default device if not specified. so, $ aucat -o junk.wav $ aucat -i junk.wav will record from the external mic (record.adc-0:1_source=mic) and play it on the headphones (outputs.hp_source=dac-0:1), while $ AUDIODEVICE=internal aucat -o junk.wav $ AUDIODEVICE=internal aucat -i junk.wav will record from the internal mic (record.adc-2:3_source=mic2) and play it back on the speaker (outputs.spkr_source=dac-2:3). and I know mic2 is the internal speaker because there is a 'mic_sense' control, which means 'mic' is a jack. I'm working on making mic switching automatic when a mic jack is plugged/unplugged, but there are still some issues to be worked out. -- jake...@sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org
