Stream Microphone is easy.

First install sox and pulseaudio (and ssh if the stream in remotely) with:

apt install sox pulseaudio openssh

The termux on android with microphone is the SERVER.

Allow pulse audio listen the microphone putting load-module module-sles-source in $PREFIX/etc/pulse/default.pa. Restant pulseaudio:

pulseaudio -k
pulseaudio --start

To stream microphone use:

sox -d -V0 -c1 -r48000 -t s32 -

You can pipe this. For example, to pipe as a microphone of your pc use:

sox -d -V0 -c1 -r48000 -t s32 - | ssh -p CLIENT_SSH_PORT CLIENT_USER@CLIENT_IP 'cat > /tmp/virtmic'

And listen the file /tmp/virtmic as a vistual microphone in your pc, the CLIENT, as pactl load-module module-pipe-source source_name=virtmic file=/tmp/virtmic format=s32 rate=48000 channels=1

Is this information accurate for termux on android?

I did just also find https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/issues/806#issuecomment-284189870

I written a gist: https://gist.github.com/ismaeldamiao/bf5c28ae9ffe83c542695840f912d75e

The gist uses https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSL_ES which is in general far better than going through the termux and java layers. I didn't know android provided hardware audio access.
