If it is too much a hassle, don't care. Since a mic may only be used once at a time I think it is not so important to have good sound server support for it, isn't it? Ok, this is what syslog said: alsa-util.c: Device hw:1 doesn't support 2 channels, changed to 1. module-alsa-source.c: Your kernel driver is broken: it reports a volume range from -128.00 dB to -128.00 dB which makes no sense. alsa-util.c: Device front:0 doesn't support 44100 Hz, changed to 48000 Hz. alsa-util.c: Cannot find fallback mixer control "PCM". alsa-util.c: Device front:0 doesn't support 44100 Hz, changed to 48000 Hz. socket-server.c: socket(PF_INET6): Address family not supported by protocol socket-server.c: socket(PF_INET6): Address family not supported by protocol Error opening PCM device front:Camera: Device or resource busy module.c: Failed to load module "module-alsa-source" (argument: "source_name=pawebcammic device=front:Camera rate =16000"): initialization failed.
