I followed the exact advise to fix my own problems with my microphone using either skype or MSN.
It fixed the problems momentarily. I left my computer on overnight and have not restarted it. I did close Skype and aMSN and started both upon waking up. Again, I have no microphone functionality through either program. I have tested it without either, just unmuting it and tapping it. There is definite functionality with the microphone itself but their is none through either Skype or aMSN. I believe the fix is not just in installing and running gnome-alsamixer but a combination of attempts made which resulted in restored functionality. -- Microphone not working on Ubuntu 8.10 after update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303406 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
