I have added your suggestion to the sound UI enhancements card for Ubuntu 19.04:
https://trello.com/c/aI3BX3ax but it seems it's already been deferred and isn't going to be considered for 19.04. Maybe some future release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1811902 Title: Echo cancelation should be enabled by default Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: Echo cancellation is a basic feature for anything where you are using a video or audio conference. According to instructions like these: https://bugs.launchpad.net/elementaryos/+bug/1682253 https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PulseAudio/Troubleshooting#Enable_Echo/Noise-Cancellation https://medium.com/@tim_73574/ubuntu-microphone-noise-cancellation-and-volume-auto-adjusted-issue-2c79678542bb There is now enough support in pulseaudio to do this well, but it's just not enabled by default. Users shouldn't need to fish around for strange things to add to config files. More complete defaults should be included.
