I can't give you a solution but I can tell you what I did as a workaround when time was running short for me.

I put jack in the mix on both ends.

Someone had suggested that I edit an alsa config file. I can't remember the results of that. My setup was perhaps not exactly parallel to the suggested fix and I did not have time to dig deeper. You can perhaps search the list archive for the discussion.

In any case, once I had jack in the mix, I got stereo where I had mono before.

all the best,

Hi,
Thanks to the amazing work and dedication to this wonderful project from some awesome engineers, I, as one of the somewhat inexperienced , have managed to create a working link using two Linux Mint v19.3 PC's for our cash strapped community radio station. Thank you.
I have a small query and a related question.

Using the default test command line on both PC's, INFO on the TX PC reports "Started mono audio transmission" BEFORE I had started the RX PC link. This was a bit confusing, however, there was no audio until the RX link was started.

I tested the link once established, for separation and found it is actually Mono!. I'm using default ALSA driver and two Behringer UCA-202's. I appreciate this is only the default settings and probably should use command line configuration options but in a previous version OpenOB worked as stereo "out of the box" using defaults. Has something changed in this regard.

So, is there any sort of tutorial on using the CL parameters. I am aware of the "Further Usage" paragraph referring to 'openob -h' etc but wondered if there was something more in depth to help me fix the Mono problem.

Anything much appreciated.
