This is exactly what's supposed to happen when you compile it with half duplex mode enabled. You should recompile it without defining HALF_DUPLEX (which should be the default) if you want this behaviour to stop. > One other thing that seems odd is that sound from the mike comes through > the speakers even when sfmike is "paused".
