|
|
I'm trying to set up pulseaudio to properly recognise my sound card's input channels (Terratec DMX 6fire, ice1712 chipset).
I am using the "via-ice1712.conf" posted here: https://sookocheff.com/post/linux/how-to-get-pulse-audio-to-recognize-your-delta-44-and-other-ice1712-cards/
However, using this config just creates one single input "device" with (apparently) 12 channels. When I start audacity and record all 12 channels I can see that channel 1-8 are silent, 9+10 are actually my current headphone output and 11+12 are the input channels I want.
How can I configure pulseaudio to only use channel 11+12 for my input device? I tried to modify the "channel-map" entry but that either caused pulse to not even list the card's input at all (when removing entries) or just had no (observable) effect at all (when re-ordering).
for reference, here is the input mapping definition:
Code: | [Mapping analog-mch-in]
description = Analog Multi-Channel Main Input
device-strings = hw:%f,0
channel-map = aux0,aux1,front-left,front-right,aux2,aux3,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7,aux8,aux9
direction = input |

I figured it out. Seems like the channel order in audacity has not much relation to the configuration of pulseaudio. With the config above it turned out my mic was on aux2+aux3.
I did not modify the file itself but instead created a new virtual source:
Code: | load-module module-remap-source master=[device] master_channel_map=aux2,aux3 channel_map=front-left,front-right channels=2 source_name=analog_mic_stereo |
