[Freeswitch-users] mod_skypiax - help needed with modified snd-dummy (one way audio)

I now reinstalled the original sound drivers
Unfortunaltely the sound problems remain, not that worse but they are there:
Audio is still (almost) one way. Almost means:
* SIP -> Skype ok
* Skype=> SIP I hear only some scratching on very loud audio
Could it be a volume problem? But snd-dummy should have no volume
properties, right?
Best regards
Peter
