I know this report has long gone cold, but in case anyone else is still having this problem, I fixed mine today by following the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireTimeline/Fixes#Internal%20microphone . Basically, mute the left channel of the mic while leaving the right channel maxed, and it works. Not sure how/why that works.

roger-- I borrowed a friend's external mic to first make sure that it would work and later bought a super cheap external mic on newegg or amazon (I don't remember which) for less than $10 (USD).

Hello, I have the same problem with skype: no internal or external mics working at all. Dear Dean Malmgren, do you really got your external mic working with skype? How did you do that?

** Description changed: I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 karmic. I have an Acer Timeline 4810tz. I can record sounds with my internal mic using Sound Recorder and Audacity, but in chat clients (I've tested pidgin, empathy, and Skype), I can't get my mic to work (ie, the person I'm chatting with can't hear me). Perhaps this is a bug in each of these programs, but it seems unlikely to me. Let me know about any further information you require.
