I'm encountering the following problem on Fedora Core 6 running on a Dell
Optiplex 745. This is a pretty vanilla computer with an ICH8 chipset and
integrated AD1983 sound capabilities.
I have wired up a funky line-input cable so that I have completely separate
audio sources playing on the left and right inputs.
When I either play these through to the speaker output directly (using
alsamixer), or record the audio using arecord, the result is that there is a
slight bit of bleeding or crossover, so I can faintly hear the left input on
the right channel, and vice versa. If I record a wav file and then play it
on another computer, the left/right bleeding follows the wav file, so it
seems that the problem is in the capture process somehow.
When I install Windows XP onto the same machine, the problem disappears, so
I can rule out hardware errors.
The application I'm working on relies on being able to reliably capture the
right and left channels of audio independently. Since the problem can be
seen using the standard arecord/aplay tools, though, I don't think it's my
code.
I've tried all the possible combinations inside alsamixer, and I don't think
there's anything I've messed up there.
I've put the relevant system details below. Thanks for any help you can
provide.
