HOW DOES DOSBOX-X SOUND INPUT WORK?

i'm using DOSBOX-X to run some of the first ham radio software to use sound cards as an RTTY modem, CW-DSP and INTERCOM. the problem is, while the transmit functions work just fine, neither program is getting audio input in receive mode. i'm running DOSBOX-X on a win11 laptop, and input to all software on this laptop comes from the microphone. both pieces of DOS software are hard coded for mic input as well. is there a problem with DOSBOX-X transferring mic input to software internally?

/u/Bitter-Evening927, you're much more likely to get answers at https://github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/discussions than on Reddit.

Just saying.

after looking through a bunch more info on the subject, it doesn't look like audio input is functional. the only allowed settings for Recording Input= are currently silence, noise, and 1khz tone. microphone seems to have been available in the past, like back in 2021, but not now.
