Public bug reported: Here's my results from sound card testing:
Note: All sound cards worked as far as sound goes, but microphone was a different story.... A. I tried a Creative Vibra 128, microphone works but very scratchy, lots of static, poor quality and very low sound. B. I tried the onboard sound (intel chip) and I got the same result as with the creative vibra128, microphone works but very scratchy, lots of static, poor quality and very low sound. C. I tried a Creative Sound Blaster Live CT4830, could not get microphone to work at all D. I tried a Creative Sound Blaster Live 5.1 digital Audigy4 SB0610. I got the microphone to record and output sound from sound recorder, but when played back sounded like a chipmonk, and when tested from system/preferences/sound I got no output at all. This is a major bug in ubuntu that has caused me to waiste many hours now trying to get a microphone to work.
