Basically, my mic's not working on Kubuntu. It used to work on Ubuntu and works on Windows. It doesn't on Kubuntu.
I've played around with settings in KMix, but in vain.
I've chosen the proper channels(Internal Analog is the only option available for the mic). I've unmuted it(it was mute by default).
How do I fix it?

Hi all,

I am running into the same issues. I am running Kubuntu 10.10, and KDE disktop. Originally Skype works, and now the mic wouldn't record. My Kmix don't have a mic mute option.

The previous version has a nice mixing interface showing all your sound and mic, what happen to the kmix version installed with kubuntu 10.10? Can someone recommend another mixer. I have a feeling my mic is mute as well, but don't where to un-mute it.... thanks.

If you are running Kubuntu 10.10 make sure you have pavucontrol installed. There also is a plasma widget called Veromix that allows you to control the various output channels.

Thanks got it to work, the plasma Veromix didn't not show a mic interface.

how do you get and install the veromix plasma? thanks....

Right click on the desktop-> add widgets -> get new widgets (near the top-right corner) -> plasma widgets -> search for "veromix".

You can either drag and drop it on the panel, or add it to the system tray: right click on the system tray -> system tray setting -> check "Veromix".
