Abstract
A method for configuring an audio interface for a speech recognition application in a computer system comprises the steps of: (a) determining how many sound cards present in the computer system are capable of supporting speech; (b) in the event at least two of the sound cards present in the computer system are speech capable, displaying a first graphical user interface for user selection of the speech capable sound cards; and, (c) in the event only one speech capable sound card is detected, and in the event one of at least two speech capable sound cards has been user selected, determining if an audio mixer is present in the computer system.
