OK WTF, I sent 2 emails yesterday. Didn't get any responses, so decided to just check out the forum. They aren't here. Sigh. Ok here is what I wrote: OK looks like i need help. I got sound to work in both this way: in /etc/pulse/default.pa comment out: #load-module module-udev-detect #load-module module-suspend-on-idle Added: load-module module-alsa-source device=dsnoop load-module module-alsa-sink device=dmix no asoundrc file needed (in fact even when I put a asoundrc such as partial: pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm "dmixer" } .... if i cchanged dmix to dmixer it wouldn't work. Maybe I'm doing something wrong with the .asoundrc file. OK so sound works, but my mic doesn't. If I unmute it in alsamixer, it goes straight to my headphones, no recoding software picks it up. Also no sound in virtualbox anymore so far That i've discovered don't work, Flash player in Chrome doesn't work (didn't try firefox). VLC/Totem work.

I ptu in the default default.pa back, then I booted, ran the padevchooser (or the manager w/e it's called). I see this under sink/source/devices/modules: module-alsa-card device_id="0" name="pci-0000_00_1b.0" card_name="alsa_card.pci-0000_00_1b.0" tsched=yes ignore_db=no_card_properties="module-udev-detect.discovered=1" Default Source: alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo Default Sink: alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo Could I somehow use this information to get mic/better alsa output support?
