Johnny: I think I have that OK. In the Skype Options for the Sound Card, I unchecked allow Skype to change the Mixer settings. Also, I took off the 20 dB boost for the mic. In Sound Preferences > Devices > Audio Conferencing > Sound Capture > I have it set to OSS. Am I correct, to have that set to OSS? When I did a test, I got this error message: gconfaudiosrc ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat: Unable to open device /dev/dsp for recording: Device or resource busy When I try to do a test call, with the Skype robot, when they would play back what I have recorded, I get 2 beeps, with only 1 or 2 seconds in between them. When I try that on MS Windows, there is about 10 seconds where I can listen to what I have recorded. Your time and your help are greatly appreciated as are the countless hours you devote to CentOS!
