Microphone in webcam does not work

[goto]

Hello,
according to the manual my web cam should have build in a microphone. If I plug in my web cam (it is a T-COM USB CAM web cam, I found the Sting MD85348) I can select the microphone in the input selection window. But there is no sound. Just let me know if you need more information.
Thanks. :)

You need to choose that input device as the desired one.

It still does not work. Any idea?

Hi goto,

Please, if you are still having issues, test with the latest development release of Ubuntu. ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p alsa-base 465373

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds .

Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text.

Please let us know your results.
