The first number (upload) always remains on zero: so nothing is picked
up from the microphone. The second number (download) does vary, but
nothing comes out of the speakers. This is why I am thinking it's an
audio problem, rather than a transmission problem.

But it does mean the sounddriver can at least play back. Up until very
recently the AWACS driver in ALSA was broken and couldn't do even that.

Been through the FAQ (section 7.4) a number of times with no luck.
Everything is as it should be, apart from the silence.

I am using the openh323 libraries confirmed as working earlier.

I am also using esd (I recompiled pwlib for esd). It connects to esd
fine, as does xmms when used simultaneously. Still silence.
