DMR does not transmit or recieve audio when usb audio routing is active. #16

Open grandmagoblin opened 1 year ago

DMR app opens and is stable. Messaging works. When trying to speak on intercom, it looks like it is trying to transmit; mic button glows red when pressing and speaking. It also looks like it attempts to receive incoming audio; mic button will glow green when it detects that there is audio being transmitted on that channel.

Tested with:

Out of curiosity, have you tried using a headset plugged into the 3.5mm jack? Have you tried a Bluetooth headset for receiving only (Bluetooth mic doesn't work with Intercom)? Are you testing with adeadtrousers release, or one you compiled yourself?

grandmagoblin commented 1 year ago

I am testing with both releases - one I compiled using adeadtrousers' tree and guide and one compiled by adeadtrousers. I will try your recommendation and see what happens. I have soft bricked one of my Atom XL's in the process of testing VoLTE fixes, so it may be a moment before I can get to this.

I'm going to be honest with you, I don't understand what the issue is. On my phone, I can load the released ROM, go through setup, enable developer settings, and set the "disable USB audio routing" option, then start intercom and I get received audio on the phone speaker.

So, what's different between my phone and yours? I have the Atom XL TEE (non -European version). Fresh install, restored stock firmware, followed the instructions to load the latest twrp and latest released ROM from May. No other changes, nothing else loaded.

You are right. "disable USB audio routing" still doeas the trick. Now I feel like an idiot. In the old version (Android 10) the app sounded a beep after "initializing" the channel. Now this seems to be gone and therefore I assumed the sound is gone all together. I never actually tested my two phones side by side until today.

I will update my thread over at xda accordingly.

In the meantime I want to keep this Issue to maybe dig deeper into the reason why the option is needed.

That's funny, but it is completely understandable since that's how you knew it was working before.

Regarding the reason why we have to do this, I can only assume that there must be a way to prevent a specific device from being recognized as an audio output. Similar to the way the rtl-sdr driver has to be blacklisted so that SDR programs can use that device on Linux.

Wanted to stop in and provide an update, I am still looking into this. My other Atom XL is still a little borked. Thanks @clewisit for clearing the issue up. I will see if there is a way around the USB routing audio option.
