[GnomeMeeting-list] 500 ekiga net comes back all garbled

[Stefan Monnier <monnier iro umontreal ca>]

I just tried my ekiga connection and got some problems: the video seems to
work OK, but the sound doesn't: the connection says PCMA/H261 for both In
and Out, and I can hear some automatic message when I connect as well as
hear some of my own sounds echoed back to me, but the sound is
seriously garbled (I still haven't even been able to figure out what that
automatic message tells me).

My connection is good (it's 5Mb/s DSL, and indeed the viedo loopback looks
OK and looks better at 32KB/s than at 8KB/s), so I'm at a loss.

I'm using the ekiga package from Debian on an amd64 using a 686 kernel, with
plenty of resources.
Any idea what might be going on?
