Pipe/Mix Line In to Output in PulseAudio
1. Load the loopback module
pacmd load-module module-loopback latency_msec=5
creates a playback and a recording device.
2. Configure the devices in pavucontrol
In pavucontrol, in the Recording tab, set the "Loopback" device's from input device to the device which receives the line in signal.
In the Playback tab, set the "Loopback" device's on output device to the device through which you want to hear the line in signal.
3. Troubleshooting
If the audio signal has issues, remove the module with pacmd unload-module module-loopback
and retry a higher latency_msec=
value
