I plugged in my mic into my sound cards' in jack which serves as line in and mic. I cant hear myself or record my voice. Yet I can hear sound. Also when I try switching the pcm.rec on it refuses to switch on. Please dont say "switch to alsa" as I dont like it oss is much easier to use. Last edited by linuxmandrake; 11-08-2005 at 11:11 AM.
