Before, this setting was just annoying because it was not persistent but always changed back to the default Line-In device. However, the complete lack to be able to use e.g. the internal microphone in a laptop is definitely worse ;) Just a general remark: the new kmix application is horrible. To say the least. Is there a way to change these sound settings in a config file or with a utility such as alsamixer? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. line-in audio capture works out of the box 2. there is no configuration to change this to e.g. built-in microphone Actual Results: This is equivalent to a broken sound system as users need to plug an external microphone in order to use VoIP apps (skype, googletalk, twinkle, sip-communicator etc.) Expected Results: The mixer applet kmix should offer easy and intuitive checkboxes to switch playback and recording devices easily. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
