Re: Help with sound card
Hi Orr, Try switching external amplifier in alsamixer on or off, this had helped me with a similar microfone issue a while ago. Use full view in alsamixer to see all alsa settings and controls. New kernel can introduce new alsa setting or control that you do not see in your current configuration. When you use a vanilla kernel (compiled your own kernel) you must use alsa-tools, alsa-lib, alsa-utils, etc. from alsa-project.org. Do not use FC6 alsa-tools on non-FC6 kernels. - Moshe Orr Dunkelman wrote: Long story short: Laptop, sound card, microphone doesn't work. Windows - work.

Re: Help with sound card
Just FYI, It is a known issue that many times skype will not work without Microphone capture on.
