asterisk users - May 2008 - Crappy sound on Console (chan_oss)

Hi all,

on my debian box i configured chan_oss to work with /dev/audio device.

CLI console command and Dial(CONSOLE/dsp) work perfectly but i notice
2 problems:

1. audio is very low in volume, even if i set 100 the mixer volume
(via cmd line setmixer utility)

2. the sound is very crappy: the voice is "vibrant", words sounds like
'ttthhhiiisss iiisss aaa ttteeessstt".

Seems like the audio frames are pumped in soundcard with a little gap
beetween one and the next chunk.


I'm speaking of a Debian 4 and Asterisk 1.4.18 (compiled)

Someone have experience?

Additional info.

I tried to disable chan_oss and enable chan_alsa (seems like kernel
2.6 should use alsa and not oss).

Well, no dial CLI command, no Dial(console/dsp) channel available.

So, how to use chan_alsa?????
