Comment 8 for bug 880399

@Matt Sturgeon thanks for the link. Will update shortly. Would also like to add that mic was working fine before the upgrade (was using 11.04, then upgraded to 11.10). I *do* remember though, that when first running ubuntu (11.04), i had to run alsamixer (in terminal), and raise volume of mic-input. That trick doesn't do the job with ubuntu 11.10 (and i also see it gets reset after each reboot).
