A NOTE has been added to this issue. ====================================================================== <https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1228> ====================================================================== Reported By: hil Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: ALSA - liboss Issue ID: 1228 Category: Reproducibility: always Severity: minor Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 07-03-2005 09:09 CEST Last Modified: 06-08-2006 17:30 CEST ====================================================================== Summary: Skype Does not work with aoss Description: I downloaded alsa-oss-1.0.9rc2 and install by # ./configure --with-aoss=yes && make && make install as root. Virtually every program works except skype (http://www.skype.com/) version 1.1.0.13_API. I downloaded the Fedora version of skype from the skype official website. Skype only uses /dev/dsp. I guess skype uses /dev/dsp as microphone input as well. I could not hear anything and the microphone did not work as well if I run skype like aoss /usr/bin/skype. If I run skype without aoss, then skype works just fine. ====================================================================== Relationships ID Summary ---------------------------------------------------------------------- related to 0001224 artsd-like style ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Raymond - 06-08-06 04:01 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- If Hetfield 's solution work, this may mean the problem is dsnoop in stead of dmix. The OSS application try to capture mono, but the ALSA driver of most on-board audio chip only support stereo capture instead of mono ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pzad - 06-08-06 17:30 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Look at SNDCTL_DSP_CHANNELS in OSS API reference. There is: The returned value may be different than the one requested. The application must check the returned value and re-adjust it's operation based on that information. Skype wants mono, but from ALSA gets stereo. If I look at OSS API reference, it is skype fault (it doesn't check return value).
