aro28

Since i installed 3D sound card(external USB card with speaker and Mic) i disabled other internal HD web camera’s Microphone which came with my Touch Screen monitor. I used usual 3.5 mm jack mic.

1. Go to- -> sudo nano /lib/modprobe.d/aliases.conf
##options snd-pcsp index=-2 - This is my USB Mic which is came with internal HD camera on my monitor.
options snd-usb-audio index=-2
options cx88_alsa index=-2
options snd-atiixp-modem index=-2
options snd-intel8x0m index=-2

2. Go to --> sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf and added below command
blacklist snd_bcm2835

Above “snd_bcm2835” is my internal sound card

That’s all.

Hi, I am confused on a matter. I have everything in the Alexa service set up and running but I have to scream in the mic to actually hear Alexa say “Yes?”. Does anyone know how I could fix this other than using the alsamixer tool? I go to alsamixer, select my usb mic pnp device, go to capture, raise it to 100, then esc out. Please help me…
