[xubuntu-users] Ekiga: audio problems.

Hello,


I am trying to set up Ekiga to use as a soft phone (calling land phones) 
while I'm on the road.  I used Ekiga before, in a different environment, 
with no problems.  But it is harder to set up this time!


I have a Diamondcard SIP account with credit in the account.  I can make 
calls, they go through, I hear others but they don't hear me.  I used a 
head set with a microphone, the microphone is working with other 
applications.  I spent hours browsing the user manual and searching 
Ekiga's and other sites, I found the following here:

      I hear the others, but they do not hear me

Check that your audio subsystem is configured correctly. You can test 
your actual ALSA configuration using those echo tests:

$ arecord -D plughw:0,0 -c 1 -r 8000 -f S16_LE - | aplay -D plughw:0,0 -c 1 -r 8000 -f S16_LE -

This will test if your sound card can record and play sounds at 8kHz.

$ arecord -D plughw:0,0 -c 1 -r 16000 -f S16_LE - | aplay -D plughw:0,0 -c 1 -r 16000 -f S16_LE -

This will test if your sound card can record and play sounds at 16kHz.

You should be able to hear yourself /with a small delay/. Be sure to 
have your sound levels up and capture on.

=================================================================================

Running each of these commands I can hear myself.  Anyone has an idea 
what I could do next?


Thank you for any insight,


Gérald
