These are some notes to help you configure a USB audio device on ArcaOS (and OS/2 Warp).
- In ArcaOS, make sure you use the USB audio driver(s) from <DVD>:\CID\SERVER\ARCAPKG\USBAUD2.WPI. That is the one that gets installed with a NEW install. The other one available in the Arca Noae site, that gets installed with an UPDATE install is not working fine.
ASWITCH
ArcaOS 5.0 comes with a program called ASWITCH, which automatically switches between USB audio, and UniAud (when no audio is playing, and you plug/unplug a USB device). You find the setup program in the Multimedia folder.
ASWITCH will show on you "Startup" folder.
ASWTICH (included since ArcaOS 5.0.5) will detect an USB Speaker/headphone and will mute the computer speakers and allow to only hear audio on the USB device.
