Troubleshooting Microphone in Ubuntu 10.04

0 comments
When i installed Ubuntu and started to using for first time I was stuck with a big problem, which my microphone was not working at all and couldn't talk with my friends in my Skype. It was a pain in my back :D. I Have HDA Intel sound card on my acer Extensa 5220. I have tried many ways by Googling. Yet I couldn't make it up. Finally I posted on Ubuntu forums about my problem and one of em gave me a solution and it really worked. I'll show you how to do it.

First go to Application > Ubuntu Software Center. And search for 'Default sound card' and Install it.



After finishing install, go to Applications > Sound & Video > PulseAudio Volume Control. And move to the 'Input Devices' Tab.



Now move and keep the level bar between 60 - 70 (You can adjust as your wish). Don't move to max so it won't work.

Still you don't get your microphone work. Try switching microphone ports. It should work ;).
