Sorry Johnny et. al., I should have mentioned I actually got it working and provided more information.
Once you'd added an appropriate 4-channel input profile whatever way you want (I've removed the kinect specific profile and added a default one since there are plenty of 4-channel mics out there), the trick is you also need to edit the default.pa configuration to manually load the module for that source by adding a line like this to /etc/pulseaudio/default.pa load-module module-alsa-source device=hw:1,0 This is obviously not a long term solution, and I'm not event sure why it's necessary, but once you do the playstation eye shows up as an input device in the gnome sound applet and you can record from it using pulseaudio. I've included a patch against the pulseaudio source code (I was using it to create a personalized pulseaudio debian package) that I believe provides a solution to the problem of 4-microphone input profiles in pulseaudio, removing the device-specific kinect profile (and udev config) adding a default profile. ** Patch added: "0617-Add-default-4-channel-mic-array-profile.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/886449/+attachment/2720028/+files/0617-Add-default-4-channel-mic-array-profile.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886449 Title: [USB-Audio - USB Camera-B4.04.27.1, recording] Pulseaudio fails to detect card To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/886449/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
