Microphone doesn't work on acer aspire one series D250-1417

[jazz41408]

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

I have an Acer Aspire One Netbook Series: D250-1417 Model#: KAV60 with built in Microphone and Camera. It runs Ubuntu 10.04 netbook edition and it identifies the camera but not the microphone. There is no noise at all. It works only with sound recorder but skype and empathy theres no sound. I tried going to sound, input and there is no option for my microphone.

jazz41408, thank you for posting back. In the future, please follow the directions more closely and post the requested information as separate attachments - this makes it much easier for the developers to find what they are looking for when tracking down your problem. I'll mark the bug as triaged and let a developer take it from here.

I am noticing this same issue using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS as well. The last time this bug was updated was May 2010.

The internal Microphone does not appear in the Input list and is unavailable to applications e.g., Google Talk Voice/Video plugin, etc.

Sorry, I also have an Acer Aspire One D250.
