Pine Phone Pro audio on phone calls: discussion, support and tips

[mikehenson]

2023 Dec 11 - Danctnix Arch with Phosh [SOVLED]

I did an update "sudo pacman -Syu" and people told me my phone calls sound like I am on a freight train.

BEFORE update 
 /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/PinePhonePro/VoiceCall.conf
  cset "name='ADC Capture Volume' 160"
  cset "name='Mono ADC Capture Volume' 160"

AFTER update to fix voice calls
 /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/PinePhonePro/VoiceCall.conf
  cset "name='ADC Capture Volume' 0"
  cset "name='Mono ADC Capture Volume' 0"


*I use the internal speaker, not the "speaker" button*

EDIT: 2024 Aug 02
/usr/share/alsa/ucm2/PinePhonePro/VoiceCall.conf
cset "name='ADC Capture Volume' 1"
cset "name='Mono ADC Capture Volume' 1"
...
cset "name='IN1 Boost' 0"
cset "name='IN2 Boost' 0"
cset "name='IN3 Boost' 0"

I always use a headset (3.5mm headphones with microphone).

Code:

cd /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/PinePhonePro/
sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Pine64-Arch/master/PKGBUILDS/pine64/alsa-ucm-pinephonepro/VoiceCall.conf
sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Pine64-Arch/master/PKGBUILDS/pine64/alsa-ucm-pinephonepro/PinePhonePro.conf
sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Pine64-Arch/master/PKGBUILDS/pine64/alsa-ucm-pinephonepro/HiFi.conf

==Other Caller hears an echo (PRO)==
sudo nano /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/PinePhonePro/VoiceCall.conf
#Set
cset "name='ADC Capture Volume' 1"
...
cset "name='IN1 Boost' 0"
cset "name='IN2 Boost' 0"
...
cset "name='Class D SPK Ratio Control' 5"

This makes both calls with and without a headset work great!
