That's because you are using gentoo and their package is buggy. Not sure
if that warning has an importance or not.

That's the problem. That chipset (which I am using) doesn't support the
frequency required by GnomeMeeting to record and play voice. If you want
to make it work, you will have to use native ALSA with GnomeMeeting CVS
and not ALSA with OSS emulation. It should work very well.

I think we have an ebuild for the CVS but I'm not sure, you should ask
on irc.gnome.org, #gnomemeeting to Tassian (he is usually logged every
weekday during work hours).
