Running tumbleweed. I have a headset Turtle Beach Stealth Pro. When i plug it
in it detects the output, not the mic.
pactl looks like this:
> ~ ❯ pactl list sources | grep "node.name"
> node.name = "alsa_output.usb-Turtle_Beach_Stealth_Pro_PlayStation_7702FFFF7202-01.analog-stereo"
In the sound system settings I am able to redefine this source profile from
"Analog Stereo Output" to "Pro Audio". This makes the input visible in pactl:
> ~ ❯ pactl list sources | grep "node.name"
> node.name = "alsa_output.usb-Turtle_Beach_Stealth_Pro_PlayStation_7702FFFF7202-01.pro-output-0"
> node.name = "alsa_output.usb-Turtle_Beach_Stealth_Pro_PlayStation_7702FFFF7202-01.pro-output-1"
> node.name = "alsa_input.usb-Turtle_Beach_Stealth_Pro_PlayStation_7702FFFF7202-01.pro-input-0"
Then, i am even able to record directly from the mic (and play) using:
> parec -d alsa_input.usb-Turtle_Beach_Stealth_Pro_PlayStation_7702FFFF7202-01.pro-input-0 --file-format=wav output.wav
> aplay output.wav
However, no application seems to use this as an input device (even apps for
recording sound).
I wouldn't say its a headset compatibility issue with linux systems in general
as ubuntu seems to detect and set up everything as expected just by plugging it
in.
