PPP caller hears themselves - nibblefaster - 06-28-2022 Hi forum, I have been trying to use my PPP explorer edition with latest beta Manjaro Phosh. I am finding that whoever calls me just gets bombed with the sound of their own voice. I have tried playing with the volume levels of mic and speaker, both with gnome settings, and pulse control. I even tried setting the volume all the way down for everything and it still happens. Is this maybe a hardware thing? RE: PPP caller hears themselves - wibble - 06-29-2022 I can't think how it would be a hardware thing. An audio routing problem in software seems much more likely as in the best tradition of linux it offers you a variety of ways to shoot yourself in the foot. I'd suggest returning to defaults, but I don't know where the changes are stored. RE: PPP caller hears themselves - Chief - 06-29-2022 Whether PPP or PP I have found using a good headset works best at all times. I use a Blackberry ear bud set and the voice quality is excellent. RE: PPP caller hears themselves - grinzie - 07-01-2022 I recently switched from Arch-Phosh to Mobian-Phosh, and setting the input volume to almost nothing solves this problem, which has existed since the beginning, for me. Also, I set Input/Output Configuration to Phone Call. Also, I turn the Output volume down as low as I can stand during a call and am learning to put my ear directly on the speaker. I'm not sure if I ever thought to lower the input volume previously, but I am pretty sure that Mobian does a better job of saving Sound Settings across reboots. At any rate, I had my first clean phone call in three months with one individual yesterday. RE: PPP caller hears themselves - wibble - 07-04-2022 You could try investigating the modem's echo cancellation settings. The AT command manual includes AT+QEEC Set Echo Cancellation Parameters, but provides no detail about what any of the parameters do. It may be purely a passthrough to some native Qualcomm settings. The call audio routing on the pinephone bypasses the alsa and pulseaudio mixers so we don't get to use software echo cancellation. I haven't checked the routing for the PPP but I suspect it's a similar situation. RE: PPP caller hears themselves - EwigeBlumenkraft - 07-04-2022 You should edit /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/PinePhonePro/VoiceCall.conf and set the following mic boost options: IN1 Boost 0 IN2 Boost 1 IN 3 Boost 0 RE: PPP caller hears themselves - nibblefaster - 07-20-2022 Yup, that sorted it, it does work after all. Made a phone call on the PPP today, with these settings on Manjaro, it works. Thanks for those who posted help! I also updated the firmware using gnome firmware tool for the modem in case that helped. RE: PPP caller hears themselves - nibblefaster - 07-21-2022 Saying that, the caller is very quiet to me, and also not sure if the device wakes from suspend for a call properly. |
