Hi,
If I understand correctly, what might be happening is not software
mixing, but hardware mixig, i.e. the mic input is going directly to the
outputs through the card's hardware mixer. This may happen even if the
selected input for recording is not the mic. You can check this using
the alsa mixer or something like gamix (see if the mic input is open).
If this is what is happening, the recording input might be set to line
instead of mic.

Hi all,
I'm trying to get voip in a video game (ut2004) working on my Nforce2
chipset with Alsa. This is with the 2.6.8.R9 kernel from Planetedge.
There appears to be some software mixing support available now with the
Alsa snd_intel8x0 module as when I play the game I can hear the games
audio and my mic at the same time. Am I wrong about this? Is there some
other means by which I can hear both audio sources at the same time? The
reason I ask is because I still cannot get voip to work even though I
can hear my mic over my pc speakers. I am wondering if I still need to
use the dmix plugin in my .asoundrc file to get voip to work as some
older(?) documentation says. Can someone point me in the right direction
please.
