after you finish your nap, pull "audio city"

I just got it from an epel repository, but it caused problems with yum. If I install it, I guess I'll have to do it from source.
I'm not really looking to do much interesting with audio. Eventually I expect to install skype. That was the reason I bought the headset. I wanted to make sure that I could make existing software use it before trying to use it with something new and possibly more complicated.
If the humming is in the headset microphone, I suppose I'll have to get a different one. Any ideas on how to tell before I buy it whether a microphone will introduce humming?
First I need to fix my packages.
audio city version i have is 1.2.12.
you do not mention where you pulled from, so i would suggest same site where i pulled it.
i checked back in history to insure i recalled where i pulled it.
this is file i have to pull nux desktop rpms.
/etc/yum.repos.d/nux-dextop.repo

as for vlc, i have version 2.0.8, so you might need to find a later release. a problem is that it likes to enable screen blanking when playing videos. :-\
this is what i pulled for it;
vlc-core-2.0.8-2.el6.nux.x86_64 vlc-2.0.8-2.el6.nux.x86_64 vlc-plugin-jack-2.0.8-2.el6.nux.x86_64 vlc-extras-2.0.8-2.el6.nux.x86_64
