I think this should work: $ pacmd list-sources ... find out the number N for your webcam (look for "index" at the start of a section mentioning its type, or do something like: $ pacmd list-sources|grep -E "device.product.name|index" $ pacmd set-default-source N To move a particular one (e.g. skype) once already started, $ pacmd list-source-outputs ... find the number M for skype. Or something like: $ pacmd list-source-outputs|grep -E "index|application.name" $ pacmd move-source-output M N ... should move only skype (output M) to the microphone (source N) I've reconstructed this from what you'd do for sources, for which the equivalents would be: list sinks set-default-sink list-sink-inputs move-sink-input http://askubuntu.com/questions/71863/how-to-change-pulseaudio-sink-with-pacmd-set-default-sink-during-playback/72076#72076 -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
