# cd /usr/share/sane/gt68xx # rm PS2Dfw.usb # ln -s PS2Dfw2.usb PS2Dfw.usb $ xsane

A non-default sound card for Empathy IM client

Empathy IM client lacks audio in/out options. As a workaround, to configure it to use a non-default ALSA device (e.g. when the additional card serves a handset) tune GStreamer defaults with:
