Hi,
You are not in a 64-bit machine with voxin, are you?

Hi Luke,
Many thanks for your reply.

Anything that I can do to help?

I know the C language and have some time available during the evenings 
and weekends.

Give me some tips, point me to some documentation and I'll try my best.
Thanks.

Hi all,
I tried the following experiment in karmic.

1. I changed the file ~/.pulse/client.conf.
from
   autospawn = no
to
autospawn = yes

2. I changed the file ~/.speech-dispatcher/conf/speechd.conf.
from
#AudioOutputMethod "pulse,alsa"
to
AudioOutputMethod "alsa"

3. Reboot.

No speech from orca, only noises.
All sounds are ok.
Any idea?
 

This is due to speech-dispatcher's alsa output code not using the ALSA API 
correctly, and thereby does not work properly through the plugin system to 
allow audio to be sent via the pulse plugin to pulseaudio.

The best thing to do is to use the alsa output only for use with alsa alone. I 
intend to fix the pulseaudio output code for lucid.

Audio input and Jaunty

2009-11-12 Thread Dave Hunt 
Hello!

I'm trying to get audio input to work on a machine running Jaunty, from
which pulse audio has ben purged.  No matter the chosen device in the
dialogue in Sound Recorder, I get a recording of dead air.  When I call
the test robot on Skype, and talk, 10 seconds of dead air is played back
to me.  I've turned up all the volumes for capture in alsamixer, and
noted that all the mute checkboxes are cleared.  Incidentally, I can
record using Audacity.


Thanks for any help,


Dave

if I mistake not, need to compile the espeak to use alsa in another
audio port, as Andre said in another message.
