I have an AVStream virtual audio driver, based originally on the
"avsamp" sample but almost completely rewritten. I serve exactly one
format at a time, usually 22050-M-16. The only properties I support are
the two jack descriptors. If I connect directly to the device in
graphedt under the "WDM Streaming Capture Devices" category, audio plays
fine. But if I build a graph using the instance under "Audio Capture
Sources", it appears that the system audio engine gets involved. One
minor side effect is that the pin always says 44100-S-16, even though I
don't support that format. The audio does play, however (so someone is
converting).
The larger problem, however, is that my audio is being boosted to the
point of distortion. I don't understand where this is coming from. I'm
currently attenuating my own signal by 50%, and the resulting stream is
still painfully overdriven.
Where is this coming from? Is there some AGC in the audio system? Does
it sample a short period to decide what my average volume is and boost
to compensate? How can I stop this?
