Howdy,

I'm having trouble configuring my sound card so as to be able to record
voice as well as talk on Skype.

Whenever I try recording my voice using arecord, or do a Skype test
call, the audio output I get is static and squeaky.

I went through the instructions described here,
http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ALSA, and set things up where applicable as
best as I could tell.

Here's the details of my current setup:
Sound card:
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio
Controller (rev 02)
    Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd Device a002
    Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel

ALSA packages installed:
media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.27.2
media-plugins/alsa-plugins-1.0.27-r1
media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.10.36
media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.27.2

cat .asoundrc
defaults.pcm.!card Intel
defaults.pcm.!device 0

What else am I missing here?

Thanks.
