Description Tomas Jamrisko 2013-06-10 14:18:35 UTC

Description of problem:
Applications seem to use incorrect source if using loopback kernel module. 
  
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pulseaudio-0.9.21-14.el6_3.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load required modules for loopback `modprobe snd-aloop ; modprobe snd-pcm-oss ; modprobe snd-mixer-oss ; modprobe snd-seq-oss`
2. Select loopback as input and output devides in sound preferences
3. Try playing something and recording it in a different application

Actual results:
You won't be able to record anything

Expected results:
Recording should work

Additional info:
The loopback itself seems to work, as it works when I use audacity for recording and specify the right device.

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unable to address this
request at this time.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate, in the next release of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
