Finally, a solution to the internal microphone not working in Skype on Ubuntu! Ever since upgrading to Jaunty I haven’t been able to use my IBM Thinkpad’s built-in mic for skype calls. Very inconvenient to say the least.

I stumbled across the sound edit controls today:

  1. Left click on the sou
    nd applet in the system tray and click “Volume Control”.

  2. Unmute the “Microphone”

I never knew this existed! Its not in my admin menu anywhere.

(I apologize to Pulse Audio for the many curse words erroneously thrown in its direction over this)
