The uvcvideo driver uses the V4L2 API in the Linux kernel. Ekiga can use either V4L or V4L2.
http://linux-uvc.berlios.de mentions an audio bug in some Logitech webcams. Maybe this is related to your problem. I have found that xawtv-20070625-114215 works with V4L2. Camorama apparently does not. Ekiga sees the device now, but it has a new complaint: Your driver doesn't seem to support any of the color formats supported by Ekiga. Please check your kernel driver documentation in order to determine which Palette is supported. Looking at the source for Ekiga shows that it has something to do with YUV420P.
