Hello.

I am trying to use my microphone (with skype and mumble) but was not able to make it working. I tried all entries in the fields to select input, but no results every time. I have removed the mute in alsamixer and the micro works correctly. I mean, if I speak in it, I can hear my own voice stronger, so it probably works (but there is an echo for a reason I do not know. This will be annoying if it persists, but my first goal is to be able to use the micro, annoying things I can fix later).

In mumble and skype, when trying to select input device, I have a long list rather unreadable for me, with info like card=SB (I guess it means SoundBlaster), DEV=0 or DEV=2 (related to /dev? There are 2 files in /dev/snd/by-path?) and only skeakers/converters/null... but nothing related to microphone AFAIU.


The thing I really can not understand is why I have 2 sounds cards (also in /proc/asound/cards) but I have not added any in my computer (the only related NVidia stuff I have are graphic cards) so I wonder why there are 2 of them (and I am afraid by the NVidia one, to be honest).
