I have MS-1221 (PR200) laptop that I need to fix for my sister so that Skype works. The issues were - webcam didn't work - audio didn't work on skype I installed 2.6.31 kernel - that fixed webcam issue now cheese and skype work ok with webcam. After installing new Skype 2.1 beta sound didn't work until I disabled in skype "Allow Skype to automatically adjust my mixer levels", after that it worked without problems. Then I tried using skype (and other audio recording applications on Fedora) but couldn't record audio from internal microphone, but when I connected external microphone audio recording (and skype) worked. So I had everything working ok, except that I couldn't record from internal microphone... I googled around and tried a few parameters for snd-hda-intel module, but internal microphone still didn't work, but that was acceptable. I was doing all configuration while in Gnome, and now I had working audio and video for skype, and also working audio recording (via external mice) and working webcam for cheese, skype and other applications that use webcam. Then I switched into KDE, without restart, just log off and login to KDE. KDE immediately popped up a window saying: KDE detected that one or more internal sound devices were removed: * Output: HDA Intel, INTEL HDMI (HDMI Audio Output) And now sound was gone! I tried reloading snd-hda-intel module, logging back to gnome, restarting... nothing! There is absolutely no sound output! Now can I troubleshoot and fix this? Why and how can KDE interfere with PulseAudio so much that it also messes up sound in Gnome?!? This has really pissed me off! Any suggestions are more than welcome, so please give any suggestions you have. Also if you need more info just tell me what do you need. Cheers!
