Public bug reported:
Ekiga produces an audible echo even if the echo cancellation setting is
enabled, so it seems there's a problem with the echo canceller.
Details: I've setup Ekiga to use my USB webcam's built-in microphone as
input device and the loudspeakers as output sound device. This obviously
causes the microphone to pick up any sound produced by the dialled
party. True, when I call the Ekiga echo test, my voice is played back
with a very audible echo. There seems to be no difference whether I
check the echo cancellation checkbox in the Ekiga preferences.
Workaround: Headphones can be used as a workaround. However, in the many
cases when I'm not working as Satan's henchman and is required to greet
people with "Bow down to your new master!" in an ominous voice, I'd
prefer to be able to use Ekiga without having to resort to a headset.
