Public bug reported: PS Eye contains 4 microphones for extra audio quality. It worked in previous versions of Ubuntu since 9.10 for me. Now in the "Settings" -> "Sound" -> "Input" only the following options("Connectors") are available:
"Line-in Rear Front" Also the device itself is missing in the list below.
