The problem is specifically with the gnome-volume-control applet which always shows all recording channels as muted, irregardless of their actual status. The applet works, however, in that it does change the state of the channels. alsamixer shows the real state, and alsamixer also reflects changes to the mute-state of the channels performed via the gnome-volume-control.
Without a desktop environment, alsamixer works and shows the channels unmuted. I believe something has changed, however, recently as I previously was unable to unmute the channels at all. This is vague, but all I've got right now... sorry. -- Microphone Capture ALWAYS muted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/299642 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
