Bug Description
When I connect an audio device using USB, I can only use it to play back stereo sound. Anything else is not detected. I tried it with two different devices and they both give me the same result. Neither in KDE nor in Google Hangouts, I can use my microphone. It does not show up as a selectable input device anywhere.
ALSA does seem to correctly detect that these USB devices have a microphone.
The microphone of my internal audio does work.
