Hi,
I tried an imic -usb audio device on 1.5ZA (1/16 sources) on a Sony GR290 
laptop, dmesg gives:
uaudio0 at uhub0 port 1 configuration 1 interface 0: Griffin Technology, Inc 
iMic USB audio system, rev 1.00/3.00, addr 2
uaudio0: audio rev 1.00
audio1 at uaudio0: half duplex
with speaker connected to imic audio output, no sound output with:
mpg123 -a /dev/audio1 -r 44100 file.mp3 , message from mp123 says :
Playing MPEG steam from file.mp3
MPEG 1.0 layer III 128 kbits/s, 44100 Hz joint-stereo
[1:46] Decoding of file.mp3 finished.
-What am i doing wrong here? This box also boots XP and audio with the imic 
plays the same file.mp3 -same setup as well. Thanks in advance for any 
insight.
-Mel
