All is good for Skype. Nope, it doesn't work like that. Every time it will get the source that is most suitable for a VoIP app. Be it the only microphone, a USB headset, BT headset or whatever makes most sense. Not until you manually set a different source will PA restore the selected source for Skype. Or, actually, for all VoIP apps, in that case. > If the user selects desktop recording, this does not work. So the consensus seems to be that the best solution would be a new 'screencasting' media role, as both me and David pointed out in other posts. That should, IMO, as David wrote, include default microphone, too. You could mute it, of course, but I don't think a separate 'screencasting+mic' role would make sense. Turn that into a feature request on PA trac, please, would you? Cheers, -- Micha? (Saviq) Sawicz <michal at sawicz.net> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
