Hello everybody,

I tried to configure a microphone on OpenBSD 4.1 but it seems I'm too dumb
to get it working.

I've read the FAQ (well the manpages where not that helpfull about it) and
configured the settings like descriped:

    inputs.mic.mute=on
    inputs.mic.preamp=on
    inputs.mic.source=mic0
    record.source=mic
    record.volume=255,255
    record.volume.mute=off
    record.mic=0
    record.mic.mute=off

All I get if I do dd if=/dev/audio of=myvoice.raw is some scrambled sound.
Sounds like the background noise on every Audiodevice just much louder.

I'm sure I miss something but I don't figure out what it is.

My audiodevice is a auvia0.
I tried to play a littlebit with the settings but maybe I fucked something
up...

audioctl -a && mixerctl -a Output:

outputs.center=255
outputs.center.mute=on
outputs.lfe=255

The only thing wich happens is that the noise gets reduced (but not away)
if I say something into the microphone. But the words I speak wont get
recorded.

It would be great if somebody could point me to my misstake and tell me
how to get it working. :)


Kind regards,
Sebastian
