Hi all,

I'm planning to use FreeBSD for my VoIP needs also, like Ekiga, Empathy, an=
d=20
other free VoIP applications. But I'm not able to test recording of audio f=
rom=20
my microphone. I've tried gnome-sound-recorder (with no esd running) and au=
dacity
applications. I've two sound cards (Intel HDA - snd_hda1, and Yamaha YMF740=
C -=20
snd_ds1). To isolate this problem, I've unloaded snd_hda1 while testing. My=
=20
microphone is connected to the YMF740C sound card. The microphone and sound=
 card=20
are working fine, as I regularly use them in my Gentoo GNU/Linux OS (also=
=20
installed on the same box).

Following is the output of 'mixer' command:

----8<-----8<----
% mixer

Recording source: mic

With above mixer settings I can hear from my speakers whatever microphone=
=20
is receiving directly without running any application. But any application=
=20
trying to record from microphone is not getting any audio data. Any ideas=
=20
how to rectify this issue ?
