I have problems using my mic on the usb webcam.
I've tried two different webcams so I'm thinking it has something to do with alsa.
First, if I do arecord --list-devices, two devices show up. Thats correct. However when i do alsamixer -c 1 I get an error. Why is that?
Next, skype fails on me with a read error. Possible because something is not setup correctly in alsa?
Below i pastes some output of various commands:
---
marcel@marcel-desktop:~$ arecord --list-devices
