Gustav, Not sure whether your problem is the same as mine, but I had no sound from Mic on OS 11.3 (different codec, but also Intel HDA). Eventually it turned out that something's wrong with KDE 4.4 KMix. The problem got solved when I "disabled" "Capture1" instead of enabling it. Alsa Mixer or Gnome mixer worked correctly for me. -- Mark Goldstein ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lotusphere 2011 Register now for Lotusphere 2011 and learn how to connect the dots, take your collaborative environment to the next level, and enter the era of Social Business. http://p.sf.net/sfu/lotusphere-d2d _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
