Subgraph starting at alsa-jack.jackP.5807.49 timed out (subgraph_wait_fd=21, status = 0, state = Running, pollret = 0 revents = 0x0) In my specific case, I've also considered two alternatives, both of which miserably failed:ġ) Using the mic of a Logitech QuickCam USB Camera (the kernel correctly recognizes it, but I'm unable to get any useful sound from it).Ģ) Using a mic through a firewire audio acquisition device and jack, which works with audacity (again!), but I'm unable to interface skype with jack.Īnyway, I'll try to stick to ALSA for a while and wonder if there is sth left to try. For which inscrutable reason does the rest of programs not perform as well as audacity?! and the problem still persists! Even with arecord! Regardless of the format I choose, and regardless of my alsamixer settings! So it appears to be a very similar issue to the one R00KIE has reported: only audacity seems to correctly capture the sound from the mic. So I decided to get rid of pulseaudio and simplify things. Changing the settings changed the way in which noise occurred, but with no satisfactory improvements. Thank R00KIE, unfortunately I've tried all of your suggestions with no success. So, currently I'm not able to do any virtual vocal conversation with my Archlinux, and I really don't know how to troubleshoot this problem. Googling around I've found many other users apparently with the same problem (especially running Ubuntu and Fedora distributions) but not finding a solution.Īlso using the google-talkplugin (installed from AUR) in firefox leads to the same problems!! Again, pulse audio appears as an optional dependency. However, the sound from the output of the soundcard is perfect: only the audio captured gets corrupted. Audacity is not using PulseAudio, as far as it's my understanding, so the problem could be related to PulseAudio. all the audio devices listed in skype options). In skype options, the only sound device I can choose is "PulseAudio server (local)" for microphone, speakers and ringing (i.e.
With audacity, the sound from the mic is clearly captured, no crackling occurs. I'm using a normal mini-jack mic plugged into my Realtek ALC861 soundcard (treated by the kernel as an HDA Intel card). Hi, I'm having an audio issue using skype: whenever I try to make a call, my voice sounds distorted and crackled to the person I'm speaking to.
