Fedora :: USB Headset Is "feeding Back" Through The Microphone?
Mar 21, 2011
My Logitech USB headset has been with me for *years* (since Fedora 10 and before, when I used to use Windows XP!) and it was always fine, but since I updated to Fedora 14 I can hear my own voice, really loudly, whenever I plug it in. I never had this problem before, I've ignored it for a while, but now it's starting to p*** me off. I can't listen to music without hearing myself breathing in the background! Really annoying...
how to fix this? I suspect it's a PulseAudio problem, but haven't been able to click my way around it...

I've got a headset with a microphone plugged in, but not recognized by KDE's mixer.
Code:
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 046d:0a0c Logitech, Inc. Clear Chat Comfort USB Headset The device is visible in system settings: System Settings->Multimedia->Phonon->Audio Capture
but not in the mixer under Capture Devices. Is there an easy way to get either the notebook's built-in mic or the headset mic to start?

I can hear my echo in the headphone from the microphone. It is annoying when I make VoIP calls using the headset because I can hear my own breathing all the time

I am using a MSI GX630 Laptop with Xubuntu 11.04 installed. I am attempting to use a logitech H230 headset (here) which works fine on other computers running windows but is now not working in Xubuntu.
when plugged in, the headphone work, but skype does not record any sound from the microphone.
I am happy to provide any additional information I can, hopefully someone can help me.
I am studying abroad in Sweden and need my microphone working to speak with my family in the states. I also have an internal microphone which is does not seem to be working (thread here)

When I started using Slackware I've been using USB headset. Everything ran perfectly fine. They got recognized, I could use all of it's functions and so on. Unfortunately volume control on them stopped working so I had to service them, and like in every third world country, yay I need to wait minimum three weeks just so they can press a button and say "Yup, they don't work".
I bought normal headset to use them while other one is getting fixed, and didn't expect any problems with them considering they are "old" technology, normal audio input and output.
Now problem is following, sound works fine but microphone doesn't. Once I managed to "fix" it by switching audio input from mic to something else and then back to mic, now even that doesn't work. Another... "problem" is if I leave my USB webcam plugged in while booting computer, there is no sound at all, ether on line ones or USB ones but I can easily solve that problem by unplugging webcam, rebooting and plugging it back in later.
Now everything ran fine until my computer shutdown while I was sleeping. Don't know why, but it started happening recently, don't see anything smart in logs so I assume its... something, read it could be cache, HDD, temperature and so on but since logs don't write down anything smart... will deal with it some other time.
When I talk I can actually hear myself on the headset, which probably means that they work. If I put mic boost all the way up, I can hear myself perfectly clear, but somehow... seems that that information just doesn't get to Slackware, well it gets somewhat considering that it reacts to me adjusting mic boost on KMix, but everything else... no.
Arecord doesn't record anything, TS register as microphone isn't plugged in at all, skype doesn't get any input ether.

since 9.10.My microphone works, BUT only after I open the 'Sound Preferences' panel, and change the setting under the 'Connector' tab to another selection (any will do), then set it back to 'Microphone 1'.Since this works, I wondered if there is a way to make this happen automatically at every login?

i started messing around with conky. its really neat and i like making new configurations and what not, just for fun. the thing is, the other day i was playing around with the 'cpu' variables (cpu, cpubar, cpuguage) normally if you wanted to see the usage of say cpu0 or cpu1 you could call the variable as ${cpu cpu0} or ${cpu cpu1} respectively. well i input ${cpu5} (obviously i dont have 5 cpu's) well it still gave me output as if it was showing me the usage of that cpu. can any of you guys explain this. it also works for other parameters as well. is conky just showing me a bunch of random graphs and percentages or when i called that imaginary cpu does it default to a certain one. these are the only two answers i can come up with on my own.

Does this sound like anything to anyone:
After i plugged in a pair of USB headsets, the speakers wouldn't work.
(neither did the headset)
i can still use headphones plug to hear music and what not. but just not through the speakers.
I tried rebooting, playing around with the mixer and the settings, but nothing seems to help.
I have no idea what to do from here.

If I have an interactive program, e.g top, which, after launch, can be fed with key strokes and changes its behavior, for example, after launching top and then pressing "1", you can see the CPU utilization per core. I was wondering if there is a programmatical way to do so, so I don't have to press "1" every time. I would think it is an easy task, but so far my attempts have failed.

I am on Fedora 12.I have a USB bluetooth dongle and a bluetooth headset.The dongle gets recognised fine and I can pair the headset as well. PulseAudio sees the input and output of the headnet perfectly. It also runs perfectly for about one minute, and then the headset is disconnected. Why?During the sixty seconds where everything works, I also hear a beep (about every 20 seconds).After disconnecting I have to put the headset back into pairing mode and then remake the connection. And then everything works for another minute, and then the headset is disconnected again. Why

I'm trying to find a good USB headset that works with Fedora, does anyone have a good suggestion for this. I tried to do some research but some seem like they're a pain in the ass to setup.

I've got an MSI U123 netbook that has a built-in web-cam and mic. It has a fairly stock install of Fedora 13 on it. I'm trying to get Skype working and everything seems OK so far, except when I did the test call the playback of my voice was very low. I played around with a few settings and got a little bit better results, but still not acceptable. However, I also tried booting the netbook to Windows XP and tried Skype there. The results were a little better, but still not great. So, I'm thinking rather than a settings change the built-in mic probably just isn't going to cut it.
I've got a couple of headsets that have microphones that I've previously used with portable/cell phones. Both of these headsets have just one line that I'd typically connect to the headphone jack of a phone. Can this type of headset be used with my netbook, by connecting to either the headphone or mic-in jack, or do I need either a USB headset or a headset that has two lines (mic/headphone)? If my type of headset will work is there any type of "How To" doc on what needs to be set? I'm assuming I have to toggle some capture/mic/line settings. I haven't tried anything yet, but rather than mess around with a lot of settings and start banging my head against the wall I'd ask if this is even doable.

So this is really weird - my Logitech headset that I've been happily using with Fedora since Fedora 10 has suddenly started freaking out Fedora 14. Everything was fine until last night, I was listening to some music and it was getting late so I decided to switch to headphones. It was ok for half an hour then, when I think I (maybe, I can't be sure) knocked the USB plug in its socket, Fedora just froze. No coming back.
After a minute of plugging, unplugging, various attempts to get out of Gnome, etc. I gave up and held down the power button. Machine came back fine, I shrugged thinking it was 'one of those things', plugged in the headset again and *bam* - instant freeze! Weird. It's never done this before.
So I restarted *again* - this time plugged the headset in a different socket, same problem. Fedora froze as soon as I plugged it in.
Looking at the logs, here are some excerpts up to the crashes, in case they help. I think this is the lead-up to the initial crash code...
Again, right after those lines Linux froze and the log just tails off.
What's even weirder here is there doesn't seem to be any consistency, a repeating pattern before the crash - but it is always the instant I plug in my headset.

I have a script which checks on my jobs that run on some cluster.The script, "script.sh", takes as an input the job-id for the job to be checked. Sometimes I have 100s of jobs and I want to check them all (for successful completion.) I could put these job-ids into a text file, "job-id.txt", each id in its own line.For each job-id, the script would ask me few questions (with a yes or no answers) to see if I want to do some other checks for each job-id.I want to know how may I direct my job-ids from this text file into the script one job-id at a time.

I am setting up a mythtv/xmbc box on Ubuntu 10.10 (natty does not install on my hardware). I have a Sabrent TV PCIRC tuner card, which seems to work fine with the proper card and tuner settings. My on-board sound is HDA-Intel surround sound, which I have configured as analog duplex.
Currently the sound works fine through my speakers plugged into any jack on the back of the PC (two speakers, one jack). I can watch ripped movies and listen to music. The TV tuner is pumping sound from its external jack -- if I hook it up directly to the speakers it works fine. I can feed the Tuner's sound to the line-in on my motherboard, but nothing comes out. In the sound manager, i have the input device selected and the input level shows that the sound is coming in through the connector, and I can test the speakers and they work fine, but they don't seem to be communicating that the sound coming in needs to be pumped out through the speakers.

I have Toshiba Qosmio G50 Laptop and I have recently installed Fedora 11 on it, dual booting with Windows Vista. The problem has to do with the internal microphone which works in Windows but NOT in Fedora.
I tried to record a sound but I can not hear my voice and I also made a test call using Skype and got the same result. I do not hear my voice at all. When I made a normal call nobody could hear me.
I have searched a lot in the net for a solution and I found that a lot of people say this has to do with pulse audio and they suggest to uninstall it. I do so but nothing happened.
The only change I noticed was that, in Skype Sound Options there were more options to choose for microphone and speakers (before there was only one - the pulse audio server). Whatever option I use I had the same results so I installed back pulse audio.

Most of Audio is not operational including the Mic, the drivers are ALSA and,PulseAudio, it seems the Pulse is sitting on top of ALSA, and blocking its function, the alasmixer , only displays one column, which is the MASTER.The rest of Speakers Mics etc are not there. I tried using SKYPE, the Mic does not function at all,

I just installed skype on my F12 yesterday, the webcam I am using is a logitech C200, which has built-in microphone. I got the video working fine but not the microphone. No sound can be recorded.The same microphone works fine on my Windows 7, so at least I can eliminate hardware issue.I have never used microphone on my F12 before

I have a problem with my mic....and I have no idea why. The speakers on my laptop work perfectly fine, so sound output isn't a problem, and Fedora seems to identify that I have a mic somewhere (I actually have one next to my webcam and a plug for an external mic). However, none of the two work, even though I have turned up the volume everywhere for the mic, even in alsamixer in the Terminal. How to get my mic working? My laptop is a Acer Aspire 6530.

I am running F13 64 on my HP G72 Laptop. Everything seems to be working fine with the exception of my microphone. When I go into alsamixer I have to manually select my card HDA Intel G45, however it reverts back to the one named default.
I have saved the settings using "alsactl store" which does indeed lock in the volume levels but doesn't make the Intel card the default.
Kmix is of no use and the alsmixer GUI is terrible.
So my question is how do I make the HDA Intel card default?
