Microphone not working on Orange Pi PC

Recommended Posts

So can you guys help me debug, why I can't get the microphone to work on my Orange pi pc. Speaker works just fine. Arecord records nothing, silent file :D. Here is some terminal output:

Thanks!

 

Btw Igor hvala za super distro, skoraj vse mi dela!

Try this:

arecord -i -f S16 -r 22050 test.wav

Working fine for me out of the box, latest Armbian Ubuntu / 3.4.112 @ Orange Pi+

 

BTW: Hvala  :)

I tried this and it doesn't work unfortunately. I forgot to write that I'm not using HDMI, just audio jack 3,5mm and the pcb mic which doesn't wanna listen to me :)

 

Should I just install pulseaudio, but I'm a bit worried that it would break Mopidy or Mycroft. (tho' it shouldn't I guess) Since those two already work. 

 

Are you maybe also on irc somewhere?  I have some questions regarding IR-detection support too, since I see one is present on the pcb hehe, so should I open a separate thread for LIRC/IR-support questions?

Strange. I made a diff between hardware configuration but nothing suspicious come out. Will check later on (almost) the same hardware OPi PC+ Mic should work with alsa utils especially if it works for me.

 

IRC won't help LIRC  :D I am not much of an expert in this area. Check and bring up old LIRC threads if they exists.

A bit off-topic but I think IR kernel module is not loaded:

Hi all :)

@msev I'm trying to get mycroft running but somehow I've some problems. When I start the 'dev-setup.sh' it compiles a while and then there will come errors that gcc was stopped. I think I figured out it has to do with the RAM so I set up a 3,6G swap partition(old usb stick) and tried again but the same error appears.

I'm able start mycroft after the 'unsucessful' setup script but I cant get it to speak to me.  I use the analog output since I dont want to use a screen with it. If I use the 'cli' I'm able to tell mycroft that it should pair my device and it does so generally something is working :D

Maybe you can give me a hint how to install it. Don't want to use my RPi3 cause its my media center :D and even there I was unsuccessful but I think the distro(OSMC) is the problem there.

[EDIT]

now its working. somehow the swap was mounted but not used by the system but after I used the newest armbian everything works fine.
