    Skype audio question

    Hi all,

    I've got Karmic installed on a MacBook, and I'm trying to get Skype up and running. I've already patched the iSight firmware, so the the webcam itself works fine, but I have no microphone support. If I go to Sound Recorder, the microphone picks up my voice fine, but not Skype. In the Skype audio settings, all are set to Pulseaudio server (local), and that is the only selection available.

    Can anyone shed any light on this?

    On my Ubuntu it goes for the Alsa - start the mixer, call the "Test call" facility and see where the voice is recorded. You should be able to set the mixer to connect to the device that Skype uses (See "Options / Sound").
