[gentoo-user] [OT] GMail calling has an echo in Linux, but not Windows

2011-12-18 Thread Jason Weisberger
Using either Chromium or Firefox plus google-talkplugin in GMail has
an echo when placing a call.  Noise cancellation doesn't seem to work
at all.  There is a setting in GMail for turning Noise Cancellation
either on or off, but it doesn't seem to do a darn thing.  Anybody
else run into this issue?  Is there a piece of software I'm missing on
my system to enable the cancellation?

Thanks!

Any chance your sound card supports looping its output back around as
a monitor capture device?

I haven't the slightest clue.  I have a SB X-Fi Gamer.  The other
piece of information I forgot to leave out was that I'm using a
separate
USB microphone, however I figured noise cancellation was done on the
ALSA or Pulseaudio level, so which driver(s) are being used for the
cards should be irrelevant.  However, I could be wrong.
