[Bug 1417789] Re: [W740SU, VIA VT1802, Mic, Internal] mostly no sound at al

 

These gives errors:

arecord -D plughw:0 -c 1 -r 48000 -f S16_LE -v --buffer-time=5000 test.wav
arecord -D plughw:0 -c 1 -r 48000 -f S16_LE -v test.wav

arecord: main:722: fejl ved lydåbning: Ingen sådan fil eller filkatalog
(no such file or directory)


After arecord -L, I changed the device name and tried:

arecord -D "plughw:CARD=PCH,DEV=0" -c 1 -r 48000 -f S16_LE -v --buffer-time=5000 test.wav
arecord -D "plughw:CARD=PCH,DEV=0" -c 1 -r 48000 -f S16_LE -v test.wav

The former got me no sound at all, and the latter got me some crackling
noises.
