I do use Linux, and I'm usually glad about it, but I wasted an hour last night trying to figure out how to change my microphone port to a subwoofer port, and never did solve the problem. Linux is awesome, but sometimes basic stuff is ridiculously difficult or impossible.

Does the physical port actually have that capability? My motherboard has a lot of audio ports but inputs cannot be outputs and vice versa

[-] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago

Probably not. Unless it's bi directional combined port. But remapping audio ports like that seems like an extremely niche case I find support for it very rare in any case.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 9 points 9 months ago

Yes, and it's trivial to retask with the AC97 HD Audio program in Windows, but I couldn't find an equivalent program for Linux.

If you're using pipewire, try XDAJackRetask, I use it for that purpose.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot.
