https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=340603#c3 --- Comment #3 from Németh Tamás 2007-11-11 12:59:30 MST --- OK, I've found a workaround for my particular system. You may be able to derive the real solution from it. At first I realised that I'm able to record sound from my mycrophone by KRecord, so the problem has to lay somewhere around the kernel-skype interface. I lays there indeed. If I change the 'Sound In' device in skype's options from default to the first item in the list (HDA Intel (hw:Intel,0)) (as seen on the attached screenshot), the skype works again. If I revert my selection to default skype ceases to work again. It's interresting that skype fails to call anyone (it complains about audio capture problem) when KRecord it recording, even when I select the default sound in device, and skype would be unable to capture audio otherwise. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=340603#c7 --- Comment #7 from Takashi Iwai 2007-11-12 03:57:44 MST --- Hm, the mixer configuration looks OK right now. Can you record it via "arecord -fcd somefile.wav" properly? Also, try to get the file in the non-working state before your workaround. When hw:0 is chosen, it cannot be used by multiple applications at the same time. The "default" is for the configuration with multiplexing (and soft-mixing for playback) while hw:0 is the exclusive raw hardware access. BTW, please reset NEEDINFO flag if you provided the requested information. Otherwise the developer might not notice that you answered. Thanks. -- 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.

Also, try to get the file in the non-working state before your workaround.

Sorry, I forgot to test it previously, but now it's done. So, the result is that when I change the capture settings in alsamixer so that capturing is enabled on the docking station (as it was the case this morning after docking, so I had to commit the workaround in order to be able to capture from the microphone), then I cannot capture from the microphone. But not only the internal microphone is unable to record any sound! If I want to use a headset connected to the docking station, the the right setting is to enable capturing from the microphone again, not from the docking station. -- 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.

I guess you hit it. Basically it's a problem of Skype, and we cannot fix it (by obvious reasons). Anyway, I'd like to close this as WONTFIX -- 10.3 problem is too old to reproduce, and 11.0 problem is likely a Skype issue, should have been improved in the later version. -- 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.
