PS3 Camera driver does not work. Micro is not found.

[gadLinux]

I cannot make PS3 camera work. The camera is working but microphone is not wokring

If I try to set the volume with alsamixer I get

alsamixer
no se pueden cargar los controles del mezclador: Argumento inválido

"Cannot load mixer controls: Argument invalid"

I also cannot set the volume from pulse. I suppose that's an alsa problem.

I don't know if this has something to do. But I just post in case of:

Mar 19 16:23:46 red1 pulseaudio[4679]: [pulseaudio] alsa-util.c: Unable to load mixer: Argumento inválido
Mar 19 16:23:46 red1 kernel: [ 28.633185] cannot get current value for control 2 ch 1: err = -22

This is trusty thar.

Linux red1 3.13.0-18-generic #38-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 17 21:40:06 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I will attach the rest after the bug is created.

This change was made by a bot.

What bot? Because it broke my system.

I installed updates and now I cannot even have sound... :D
