Hi, Thanks Tanu for your feedback. On these pictures you can see the sound level at 100% display on top bar sound widget and at Gnome sound settings. Sound widget: https://plus.google.com/102144018413535329430/posts/JAvrooEA66p Sound settings: https://plus.google.com/102144018413535329430/posts/gWTMYYYwwRA Video showing, how the sound input is starting to work, after a bit change on input sound level volume. https://plus.google.com/102144018413535329430/posts/H9apGEdEzw7 Also i attach pactl output when sound input isn't working. Thanks in advance. Gustavo.

That is quite a lot, and perhaps explains why you don't hear anything in the non-working case. > > Based on this, the problem would appear to be simply too low source volume. In your original explanation, however, you said that the input volume is 100% when it's not working, and setting the volume in sound settings to 20% makes it work. It would be good to know in more detail what you mean by "sound settings" and "input volume". You could upload somewhere a screenshot of the sound settings when it's not working and input volume is 100%, and while the sound settings are open in this state, run "pactl list" again and send it to the mailing list. > > -- > Tanu > _______________________________________________ > pulseaudio-discuss mailing list > pulseaudio-discuss at lists.freedesktop.org >
