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.

Yes, I think it sounds like hardware mixing too, but from everything
I've read today it seems like it is software. I'm still very confused
about this whole issue and I'm going to start a new thread about it
once I do some more reading. Thanks for your post though Andres and
hopefully when I post again with some more information you will be able
to give some more input.

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.
