Another way of doing this is using KDE's systemsettings module for sound and assigning devices to different "actions", i.e. capturing sound/video etc.

The system settings worked! Great, now I can have a conversation on skype without having to hold a desk microphone.
Whoa! In your precious not, you said you couldn't find the needed sub- applet (neither can I), and suddenly "it worked". Where is this thing that worked.
Now for the video - where do I need to look to get skype, and the rest of my system, to fix the settings for my webcam? Skype shows the image from my webcam, but it is very dark and therefore basically unusable. WXcam is reading my webcam video with very clear brightness, but it won't record audio. It says the webcam device is on /dev/video0. I can see that file in my filesystem, but I think it is a machine language file or something. I would not know how to open it and look and see what is in it. I do not see anything in the system settings module about how to modify the settings for a webcam.
