Hi all I'm hoping that when I upgrade from Karmic to Lucid I will get full Video + Audio chat in Empathy with MSN Messenger clients. Currently, when my bother in Aberdeen (I am in S Wales) comes on-line I have to type him a message and say I'll see him soon when I get re-booted into Windows.
But the problem is that I cannot get my microphone to work. Sometimes it works, but it will never stay working for more than five minutes. I once had a full AV Skype chat with him in 5 minute chunks, but every time the mic stopped working I would have to completely close Skype and do 'alsa reload'. Now, not even alsa reload brings it to life. I have tried lots of stuff to try and get it working. I am old friend of alsamixer and pulseaudio sound preferences. I have installed the latest version of alsa (1.0.22.1). I have tried putting a model in alsa-base.conf. Sound output works OK and I can hear what I say into the mic coming out of the speakers, but no programs hear it. Can anyone help? Or suggest where I can get more help. Tony
