Hi, thanks for your reply!. Well, I'm sure at all. I have capture
volume at 100% (and of course Mic selected as capture device). I've
been messing with mixer controls for hours, trying to find a working
combination (with controls I don't know what they are for, like
DXS[1-4], Mic1,2 (2 mics??), input1,2, etc.) with no luck, so I think
it could be 2 things:
1) Hardware
- Headphones work. I've tested them with another machine
- Sound card malfunction. Have to test it, but it seems too
beautiful to be true (too simle to fix).
2) Sound car driver
- Don't know how to fix it. I have good C knowlegde, little kernel
and device drivers programming and no sound device programming
knowledge at all (zero ALSA knowledge). If I even could find a way to
troubleshoot the sound driver (e.g. could look what is reading the mic
device and see if distortion is *before* hardware or *after* hardware
-i.e. driver).
Anyway, you say you had the same problem. Did you have noise and low
volume on your mic and then selecting capture, noise had gone and mic
volume is high? Quite strange, i think.
Any hint? Thanks a lot.
