I have my microphone working (audio google talk calls with my brother in the States). I forgot how I did it, though. I use alsamixer. I don't think playback has anything to do with it, however; I mean, you don't want the sound of the microphone to playback through the speakers, do you? I have all that muted. You have to "turn on" 'Capture', then select the microphone as your input source. Maybe you should try alsamixer. Press F4 when you get in there; that brings up the capture controls exclusively. I played around with alsamixer to get it right. Good luck. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
