es1371 microphone volume problems
Hi,
I've done a bit of trawling around, and it seems quite a few people have had problems with 'no sound' with the es1371 (in this case a SB PCI128), but I couldn't find a solution.
I'm running linux 2.4.2 with redhat mods (i.e. stock RH7.1). The sound input is fine under windows.
At first I thought there was no sound input through the microphone at all, but then I found if I tapped the mic (prety hard) then that got picked up - but certainly nothing if I were speaking.
Then I played around with the mixer, and if I put the mic level, IGain and then main volume (for playback) up to their maximum values I could just make out recorded speech from the mic - but it was still pretty quiet.
Do I have any chance of getting this to work properly? (The main volume's a bit high for everyday use ;)
I saw that the es1370 had a micgain option, but the es1371 doesn't - could it be the same sort of problem?
Regards,
kev
