Hello,
my mic works in steam and discords browser version, but not in audacity or discord-bin(apulse shows defaults, but no sound).

What USE flags did you use for media-sound/audacity ?
Did you check your alsamixer settings and see if the mic is muted?

The M key will mute/unmute in alsamixer.

Thanks your for replys.
I forgot to set USE flags for audacity, it seems working now.
I mentioned mic works in steam so it's not muted, i also checked alsamixer and i can't even mute my mic.
Discord updated but failed to download discord_cloudsync(it should not effect to mic?)
Discord still won't show any audio device. Except when i run it with apulse, still no audio from mic and loops same thing when i set input mode to Voice Activity.

| I'm pretty sure discord-bin is just plain broken. On my computer it won't output sound reliably (it's scratchy and distorted), but the browser version works fine. Nothing can be done about that until upstream fixes it. |

Yes, but without push to talk... Any idea if it works with pulseaudio? Not sure if I even want try, had so much trouble with it before |

I'm using PA, so you probably wouldn't escape the bugs by switching.
But if you want push-to-talk, you could use a global (desktop) keyboard shortcut to mute/unmute the microphone. PA would make it possible to mute only the browser input while leaving the mic active for other things, if needed. |

That would be great, but i don’t know how to do it. I also can't mute my mic in alsamixer |

My discord stopped working with apulse, and pulseaudio doesn't play nicely with my sound card regarding capture.
It's not too hard to neuter pulseaudio and force it to just use specific modules/devices as source and sink, this gives the advantage of allowing pulseaudio to resample client connections.
Before you go that route though, discord needs pulseaudio to work, either fully fledged or via apulse. Apulse uses the two environment variables APULSE_CAPTURE_DEVICE and APULSE_PLAYBACK_DEVICE, which default (aptly) to "default".
You may have success with my old discord wrapper script | Code: | #!/bin/bash
export APULSE_CAPTURE_DEVICE=hw:0,0
export APULSE_PLAYBACK_DEVICE=plug:speakers
/usr/bin/apulse /usr/bin/discord |
if you tailor it to match your input and output devices. Technically, it still works here, but doesn't allow me to fix the underlying issues I have with alsa.
If you have no luck with it, say so and I can post what I did to tame pulseaudio, though it's a lot more involved. |

Thanks for reply. I will try this soon as i get home.
Edit. It seems that my .asoundrc got wrong type changed plug:2,0 to hw:2,0(as it shows in audacity).
I tried script, but still now working and export APULSE_PLAYBACK_DEVICE=hw:0,0 stops output audio too.

So, is the general consensus that apulse doesn't work with Discord anymore?
This basically leaves you with the option of using pulseaudio proper. I have done this, and I have tamed pulseaudio to my every whim, but I use jack (for other reasons) and this seems to be key in my success in taming pulse.
If you are interested in going down that rabbit hole, say so and I'll explain what's going on here.
Also, I recently built a system for my son, who joins me on discord and plays the same games I do, so my theories about a simple jack/pulse layer do work too. |

I use apulse with discord and its working for me. The command line I use is:
| Code: | | APULSE_CAPTURE_DEVICE=plug:headsnooped APULSE_PLAYBACK_DEVICE=plug:dmixs51headphone apulse discord |
I have separate entries in the asound.conf for the card that playback via speakers and the card that is hooked up to the headphones. I found out that telling apulse to use hw:2,0 results in my mic sounding like a chipmunk.
Note: My headphone card is a Sennheiser GTX 1000 headphone device. This is why I have the plugin configure for surround sound on the headphones. |
