hmm, yeah that worked. I'll see how it behaves in the future ;) skype is very buggy anyway... :| -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/900173 Title: Unreliable response of pulse audio in skype To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/900173/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi! I have the same problem. My webcam-microphone (from a new logitech webcam) worked well for some time (under 11.04 and for some time under 11.10), but then stopped working (mickey mouse-voice problem), presumably due to a pulse-audio update...? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/900173 Title: Unreliable response of pulse audio in skype To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/900173/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Martina, Try changing the default sample rate and that should solve the Mickey Mouse voice. For me too, sometimes it would work OK before I defined the default rate, but sometimes it would Mickey Mouse. Once I defined the default rate, the Mickey Mouse problem was solved. The trouble is that I can't rely on it to always respond - no input at all, not just the sample rate wrong.

I have the exact same problem. Sometimes skype will work and sometimes it will not. I get what appears to be a bad sampling rate in that people hear my speech compressed on 90% of the test calls; it sounds like Helium voice and is compressed in time; a ten second message comes across in 3 or 4 seconds. When it does work it is still difficult to understand my voice. The voice recording in Cheese works properly except the sound quality is just awful. The webcam works in Cheese and on skype pretty well. I just can't speak to anyone. When in the sound settings, the microphone seems to work most of the time, but sometimes it freezes and the volume control slider will not respond, then the sound setting will not respond and I have to force the process to end. I bought this specific webcam because it is listed on your site as working. At this point I would be interested in knowing if ANY webcams work with 11.10 and which ones. Give me just one and I will buy it. Michael, Ubuntu 11.10, Acer AX3400. Logitech C310 webcam.

Hi Michael, The bit I wrote about changing the default sample rate completely solves the Mickey Mouse voice which you are suffering from. When I saw this I decided to buy the webcam, but I think that was a mistake. I had a simple webcam for 1/3 of the price which worked fine every time. A friend of mine convinced me to buy the better camera and then I discovered the microphone was totally unreliable. When it worked at all, the voice was correct, but it wouldn't reliably give me a voice (at all). The camera part gives a nicer picture, but the microphone, which works with pulse audio, is a disaster. The simple webcam also had a built in microphone but it didn't use pulse audio. It worked well all the time. What I had to test was Chicony ICAM8124. I'm sure any simple webcam will work. Just these super duper, pooper scoopers have problems. The simple ones don't use pulse audio.
