How to add microphone access to container for multiple clients? #514

Open mremasoudian opened 1 year ago

mremasoudian commented 1 year ago

I’m running into a frustrating problem. I installed an ubuntu version 20.04 and installed Docker on it

I started a container named linuxserver/firefox on Docker.

I tried to set up the microphone for users who use this image, but unfortunately I could not do this.

Is there a way to add microphone access to this image?

thanks a lot

I haven't tried using the microphone, but audio at least works with the PulseAudio option. Have you tried the options listed here?

Thank you for your answer, Yes, I did what you said, but it was not possible to access the microphone. :frowning_face: I was able to share my host’s microphone with container before. And I was able to do this from the link below. https://comp0016-team-24.github.io/dev/problem-solving/2020/10/30/passing-audio-into-docker.html

But I don’t want this I want to make the container connect to the user’s driver like kasm workspace.But because using kasm is expensive for me, I don’t want to use it

It should just work with --pulseaudio. If not, build an image with pavucontrol and run pavucontrol with --pulseaudio in container to look for the microphone. It should appear there.
