I also have this problem in ubuntu 9.10 karmic uname -r 2.6.31-17-generic The steps that caused the problem for me was: 1. Uninstall pulse audio; sudo apt-get remove gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio vlc-plugin-pulse pulseaudio 2. apt-get advised to autoremove other packages that were no longer needed from dependencies in step 1. I did this 3. sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-alsa gnome-alsamixer 4. I restarted after this and logged in again 5 I noticed the sound preferences did not work anymore. (expected) so completely removed gnome-media in synaptic 6. I then realized gnome-media contained the gnome-sound-recorder, so reinstalled gnome-media 7. I think I logged out and back in 8. Opened sound recorder from Applications, Sound & Video, Sound Recorder 9 Selected record, lossless wave type 10. Clicked record button Got the message "Could not capture using the 'Voice, Lossless' wav profile. Please verify its settings. You may be missing the plug-ins. The idea in removing pulse audio is related to Bug #405945 It seemed to at least partially solve the problem for that bug. I have just reinstalled pulee audio with the command: sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop and sound recorder does not give any error message now but still wont record anything (related to Bug #405945) So with me the bug seems to be caused by uninstalling pulse audio, installing gstreamer0.10-alsa and gnome-alsamixer.
