Help getting a USB headset setup

I'm trying to get my USB headset setup so that I can maybe get it working on Vent through Wine.
First problem is getting Arch to install it, it's hooked up and through a couple of reboots I still can't get it working.

Here's what I get

Help me troubleshoot USB headset problems.

I have a USB headset with which I can listen fine. However, when I try to record, or use Skype the volume is very low, and apparently my voice is barely audible to others.

Any help would be appreciated. I've been struggling with this on all my machines for quite a while.
EDIT: I see that the mic is MM in that screenshot but I'm sure it wasn't last time I tested. Anyway, I'll make sure.

The problem is that alsa (assuming that's what you use) doesn't do any card switching automatically - it decides on boot which card will be default, and sticks with that choice, even if the card is not available later on.
If you're using KDE or gnome, you can select the card used in their respective control centers (whatever they're called) - but that only affects programs that are using sound systems from these DEs. Also you can select which card to use in some programs themselves (like skype).
But, if you want to let alsa know which card to use, I think the config file for that is ~/.asoundrc
There's a python script which makes the management a bit easier (since the syntax is not very friendly) - asoundconf. Here's a thread where someone had a similar problem, and also there's a link where you can get the script: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=39230
EDIT: by the way, I have a similar setup as you, and I didn't do any modprobe.conf modifications - the correct modules were loaded automatically.

HS-1000 USB headset setup and configuration

I recently purchased an HS-1000 USB headset and, firstly, I'd like to say that I am very pleased with many things about them. The sound quality is great, they are quite comfortable, and I like the mic features. Creative has done an excellent job with these.
I am confused though about the general setup, configuration, and features of this wonderful headset. And apparently I am not the only one. I understand from the response in another thread that the HS-1000 does not have a "game mode" that is configurable in the console. That still leaves many questions about the HS-1000's and, unfortunately, the Help files are not very helpful with this particular model of headset. Any general guidelines would be very much appreciated. For instance;
Is the "game mode" for this headset somehow automatic and therefor does not need any configuration?
Do any of the settings in the "entertainment mode" console do anything with regards to gaming? Or are they strictly for video, music, etc.?
Is the ALchemy software what makes the headset function with 3D audio in a game? (Assuming of course that the game has 3D audio to begin with.)
What if the ALchemy software does not find or "see" an installed game on the system? (ALchemy did not find my installations of Call of Duty 4 or America's Army even though they are installed in their default installation directories.)
Is manually "adding" a game's executable directory to ALchemy the correct way to help it work with the game? (This is what I did with COD4 and America's Army but it doesn't seem to have helped.)
Do current versions of games "see" the ALchemy software and headset as being a surround sound 3D capable speaker system? Or are there any settings anywhere in either the Creative software or the game itself that need to be checked?
As you can see there are many questions about how to fully enjoy these wonderful headsets that the Help files just don't help with. Can someone please give some basic guidance for correctly using this fantastic product? Anything at all would be very much appreciated.
Thank you.

Hello M_Squared,
The settings on the entertainment mode should also be applicable for gaming. Most of the sound settings should be available on the game itself. The rest of your questions can be answered by this link. Under Documents, you can find the alchemy quick start (how to guide) and alchemy FAQ's. Under Lists, you should find the tested games that works with the alchemy software.
Hope this helps.

Help getting GRE IPsec tunnel setup

We are setting up an old office building as an offsite data center. The network cosists on a PIX 501 firewall and a 2811 router. I am attempting to setup a GRE tunnel over IPsec back to the main office. The main office consists of a PIX515, a 2821 router, and a 2921 router.
There is also an ASA5510 in our main office that is used as our primary connection for all of our external services and as a GRE endpoint for our other offices. The PIX515 is used to connect our main office clients to the internet and we would like traffic between it and our offsite data center to go across it as well.   The default route is to use the ASA.   We used policy based routing on the 2821 and 2921 routers to direct the appropriate traffic to the PIX515.
I have attached a PDF that shows a general overview.
Right now I am not able to get the tunnel setup. It appears that the offsite datacenter is sending packets but is not receiving any when I issue the “show crypto ipsec sa” commands on both firewalls. I will show the output of that command below.

I'm not sure where the issue lies and have beat my head on this for awhile so any help/insight is greatly appreciated. If there is anything else you'd like to see please let me know.

Hi Joe,
This should be moved to a VPN forum, however, something comes up Really quickly from the problem. Here:
   #pkts encaps: 0, #pkts encrypt: 0, #pkts digest: 0
Thats from the Pix on the Main office, so I think the GRE traffic is not either getting or being encrypted. I am assuming this is the IP address of the router behind the main office 10.254.10.6 is that correct?
If so, I would put a capture on the Pix to see if the GRE traffic is getting to that PIX on the inside (Unencrupted but Encapsulated on GRE) and make sure that it is not being dropped. To ensure that, you can see the logs on the PIX and see if the firewall is dropping the GRE previous being encrypted.
Also, a packet tracer can be run to ensure that the Traffic has a VPN phase which would indicate that it is following the correct phases and it would be encrypted.
Let me know.
Mike Rojas.

IMac miniDisplay Port and USB headset

I have recently purchased the Belkin AV360 in order to use my PS3 on my iMac 27".
It works just fine, both video and sound, but I would like to have the sound output to my USB headset if possible.
When I plug in the USB headset, it continues to output sound from the operating system rather than the video that is being displayed from the miniDisplay Port. I assume that by using an analog headset might fix this but I would prefer not to spend more money on another headset if i am not forced to.
So, does anyone know if it is possible to get a USB headset to play audio when in Target Mode?
as well
If I use an analog headset, would it play audio when in Target Mode?
Thanks in advance for any help/info!

Hi Patrick,
Now test with just the Hub connected, then test by adding one USB device at a time, most likely one of the USB Drives is having problems.

Upon using USB Headsets the audio gets distorted

Hi
I have used USB headset in other laptops including HP but have never faced this problem. But I get this problem with the new notebook, and after a few minutes of use the audio quality automatically gets distorted and loud.
This is not a problem with the USB headsets since I have been using them since long without any problem, and they dont give me any distortion with other notebooks even today.
Please advise.

The headset has an independent C-Media audio chip that accepts USB on one side and has it's own AC97/DAC. Because are 2 devices (one USB controller and one AC97 sound chip) apears in 2 places in Windows devices! For more info look here:
http://www.cmedia.com.tw/?q=en/usb_audio
CM06-F+/ L+ is a highly integrated single chip USB audio solution. All essential analog modules are embedded in CM06F+/L+, including 8CH DAC and earphone buffer, 2CH ADC, microphone booster, PLL, regulator, and USB transcei'ver.
I would correct the affirmation made by somebody that USB audio devices are no soundcards - YES there are soundcards with an USB controller instead of the usual PCI one! The digital data flows on USB instead of PCI to the audio controller that send it to the integrated DAC's and to the headsets.
So trying to use the USB headset via the X-Fi is like you are trying to use the on-board soundcard via the X-Fi...

Connect your iPhone to iTunes and restore or follow the prompts.

When I get a new USB headset, how do I set up the voice so that it is optimal?

I have a Mac Mini desktop computer and don't know how to make sure my sound is set up and optimized when I get a new headset. Would someone please tell me how to do this?

Two USB headsets

If I have two usb headsets, and plug them in, will garageband be able to input/output sound to/from both devices.
my friend and I are planning on doing a podcast and we both have playstation two usb headsets.
I haven't been able to get over to his place to test it.
thanks!

I can't try the aggregate thing yet
How come? If those two headsets actually work on a Mac then you've got everything you need (Audio MIDi Setup utility is in your Applications/Utilities/ folder), just look up "aggregate" in AMS' Help section.

How do I get my USB to wireless printer on a network without a computer?

If you have a USB to Wireless printer and no computer to use the software to do this and do not want to use the WPS option (or it is not available), then the following method may help.
This is intended to get a USB to wireless, like the Deskjet 3512 printer, on the wireless network when there is no computer available. However, this can work from a computer as well if you prefer not to install the software.
For these steps, I will use an iPad.
1. The printer will broadcast a wireless network of its own. This usually has HP Setup and the model of the printer listed in the network name. Connect a wireless device to this network.
2. Once connected, open the browser. In my case, this is Safari.
3. Enter the 192.168.223.1 address in the address and press go to access the printer's status page.
4. Once there, there will be many tabs at the top. Select Network.
5. Select Wireless Setup Wizard.
6. Select Next at the bottom.
7. It will search for available networks. Select your network from the list and select next. The network should be highlighted, select it again if it is not.
8. It will ask for the password. Enter the password and select Next at the bottom.
9. The printer should now be connected to the network. It may take a few minutes to reflect this. Reconnect the computer or mobile device back to your regular network and it should be good to go.
↙-----------How do I give Kudos?| How do I mark a post as Solved? ----------------↓
This question was solved.
View Solution.

If you are able to go to other websites, then the iPad is not connected to the printer's network. The first step is absolutely key for this process to work and that is to connect the iPad to the printer's broadcasted network.
For the steps to work, the printer will need to be connected to the printer's SSID for the printer's IP address to load.
While connected to the printer's SSID, there will be no internet connection so no websites will be able to load.
The steps provided are for mostly newer model printers that have the 192.168.223.1 address reserved in them. However, older printers use a 169.254.X.X address.
What model is your printer? You may need to connect the iPad to the printer and then print a network config page off the printer to get the proper address for the printer.
What model is the printer?

Can I get hold of the setup file for an earlier version of Desktop Manager

Hello,
I've been using my Blackberry Bold 9700 trouble free for well over 18 months now. The other day I was prompted to upgrade the OS to level 6, which I did with no problem. I then noticed that there was also an upgrade for the Desktop Manager software. I also upgraded this (to version 6). I'm now really wishing I hadn't....
Ever since the upgrade I get the BSOD upon initially connecting my BB. I uninstalled the desktop manager and did a complete reinstall. This, if anything made matters worse as I then found that any USB device would cause the BSOD once I plugged it in.
The only way I've been able to solve this is by totally uninstalling the Desktop Manager and then also going and uninstalling and then reinstalling all the USB controllers from the Windows device manager.
All I really need the desktop manager for is to tether my BB to get internet acces when I'm off site, and I'd really like to go back to the earlier version but cannot find anywhere to download the setup file.
I'm running XP Pro by the way. It's obviously an incompatibility with something on specifically on my laptop which is causing the problem. I tried installing Desktop Manager 6 onto another laptop running XP Pro and it seems to be fine on there. I've not really got the time to mess around with this much more though so would prefer just to downgrade back to the previous version on this laptop if someone could point me in the right direction to get hold of the setup file.
Many thanks.

Alsamixer does not show my megalodon usually but I have seen it under device list a couple of times but I have been unable to get it to play sound.
Any help fixing sound would be appreciated greatly.

Try running alsaconf, seems to help some people with a similar issue. http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=75433

Error: USB Headset not recognized

HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC WV703AV
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium - 64bytes
Error: No error... just not working
Hello, I just bought an USB headset SOMIC and after plugging it to the PC I realize it wasn't working. At the beginning I got mad thinking that it was about the headset, however after testing it in several computers with different Operative Systems(windows 7 x64, windows XP x32 & x64) I realize that actually they worked perfectly... so whats is coming on with my PC? - I thought.
I tried by doing the following:
    1st - Changing it of USB Port - I tried the 4 of them.
    2nd - Updating the sound Drivers.
    3rd - Installing the Headset's drivers.
    4th - Downloading & Reinstalling the sound drivers.
    5th - Disabling the computers drivers in order to only use the headset's drivers.
I am getting so angry that I am planning to reinstall my OS, however before doing it I would like to know if you could help me in this matter . It is clear that it is ABOUT THE USB CONDITION OF THE HEADSET as I have others with normal connectors and they work perfectly. Moreover, I JUST REALIZE that AUDIO BEATS monitor the sound settings and it has NO USB CONNECTOR COMPATIBILITY (only HDMI or NORMAL MALE CONNECTORS).
So I tried disabling/uninstalling HP BEATS however it doesn't appear anywhere. Now I dont know what can I do to sort out this issue I am having please help me before I burned my PC . Pleasee I really need your help.
I look forward to hearing from you, thanks in advance.
Santiago.

I too have this problem. Bump.

System not registering both USB headsets

Hey there all.
I'm having an issue with my system at the moment, which seemed to start this weekend.
I have 2 plantronics USB Headsets attached to my iMac (via a hub) which I use with GarangeBand. I make use of the aggregation to make both work within GarageBand.
However as I came to record yesterday I noticed in the Sound settings that only 1 headset is recognised. Usually there were 2 USB headsets listed which I could adjust the input levels for.
I have tried a few things.
Firstly I was able to ensure both headsets were working, I did this having only 1 plugged in at a time - this registered the headset as expected, but once I plugged in the second one it would not be listed.
I have also tries using different USB ports, even to the point of having them plugged directly into the Mac itself and not using the Hub or the Keyboard USB ports.
So at the moment I'm all out of ideas.
My software is all up to date and I've not installed anything new in the past week, so I am at a loss as to why this is happening.
If anyone could help that would be excellent.
Thanks
Matt

But that doesn't mean that the hub works properly. You're drawing a conclusion that the hub works because when you connect both headsets independent of the hub you get a similar result. But you haven't confirmed that the hub is fully functional. All you've confirmed is that when two headsets are attached one doesn't work.
