Still seems to be an issue in 13.04 :( For a little workaround that seems to be working, I installed "PulseAudio Preferences" in the Software Center and then from within the app:
check: Multicast/RTP->Enable Multicast/RTP reciever check: Multicast/RTP->Enable Multicast/RTP sender select: Send audio from local microphone check: Loop back audio to local speakers Hope this helps someone else. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483812 Title: Pulseaudio will not route internal/external mic to the speakers/headphones Karmic Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: pulseaudio Recording works just fine with both MICs, Skype works fine with no issues at all. what i wanted to do is just route the MIC specially the exteranl MIC to the internal or external speaker by means if when i grap the mic and say Hellewwwo i can hear my voice through the speaker. this had always worked perior to Karmic. i didt tried all Pulseausio tutorials and installed all the extra bells and whistles but there seems no option to route the MIC to the speakers or even sing a Karaoke song. example: this works in windows7 by ticking on the option listen to this device at the MIC preferences To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/483812/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
