This is being sent to the KDE list because I THINK its a Phonon issue. I'm going to be throwing a lot of information out and basically seeing what sticks, just FYI, As I'm not sure where to begin. My problem is Skype isnt picking up my microphone input, Webcam works fine. (its a webcam + Microphone combo) But pavucontrol IS picking up my input, so I think it may just be a wrong setting somewhere...problem is, Idk what or where Trying to get skype (2.2 beta, this is the one that is supposed to finally add PulseAudio support) to work. Under Sound Devices, the only option for output / input is PulseAudio Server (local) and thats set by default. Skype isnt allowed to control the mixer levels (skype's buggy if it IS allowed) [eric@eric-laptop ~]$ aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC663 Analog [ALC663 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC663 Digital [ALC663 Digital] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 [eric@eric-laptop ~]$ The HD-Audio-Generic HDMI is turned off in Phonon, see below. alsamixer has all of my channels, on all soundcards at max, and unmuted. So its not that. Alright, Phonon! (Output + Capture are in the order they are in under Phonon for preference) Audio Output I've got four Options: *) Internal Audio Digital Stero (IEC958) *) Internal Audio Analog Stero --Greyed out *) Redwood HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 5600 Series] Digital Stereo (HDMI) --Greyed out *) Dummy Output --Greyed out The Redwood is greyed out, because on the next tab I set the Sound Profile to off since I dont use HDMI Audio Capture: *) Internal Audio Analog Stereo *) HDA Intel (ALC663 Analog) *) Default Small note. If I move HDA intel to the top spot, hit apply, close phonon and then open it back up... its reverted back to the second spot and I cant do anything about it. Next Tab! Speaker Setup! (The speakers I use are built in) Hardware: *) Redwood HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 5600 Series] -- Off. *) Internel Audio: (This is where it gets fun.) (For all of these, the "Connector" Is Analog Speakers, because Analog OUtput doesnt work) Profile: 1) Analog Stereo Duplex (Sound Output: Internal Audio Analog Stero) --Sound 2) Analog Stereo Output (Sound Output: Internal Audio Analog Stereo) --Sound 3) Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output + Analog Stereo Input (Sound Output: Internal Audio Digital Stereo (IEC958) ) --No Sound, and 'Connector' Disappeared. 4) Digital Stereo Duplex (IEC958) (Sound Output: Internal Audio Digital Stereo (IEC958) ) --No Sound, and 'Connector' Disappeared. 5) Analog Stereo Input (No sound obviously, no connector, no sound output) 6) Off.... off xD Next Tab! Backend: Gstreamer MOdules that are BLACKLISTED: snd-pcsp Modules that are LOADED: ( with grep "snd_" ), spaces in between for readability. snd_hda_codec_hdmi 20135 1 snd_hda_codec_realtek 241866 1 snd_hda_intel 20567 5 snd_hda_codec 71160 3 snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel snd_seq 43528 0 snd_seq_device 5033 1 snd_seq snd_hwdep 4905 1 snd_hda_codec snd_pcm 63457 3 snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec snd_timer 15245 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm snd 48471 19 snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_hwdep,snd_pcm,snd_timer snd_page_alloc 6035 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm All of this is mainly annoying because, if I plug a headset with a microphone into my jacks; skype works fine; so im leaning towards a Phonon Profile + Modules issue, if anyone can help it'd VERY appreciative. ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.
