I just tried plugging in my second USB device and only the playback
device was recognized, the microphone was not. Here is the output:

$ fuser -v /dev/snd/*
                     GEBRUIKER   PID SOORT PROGRAMMA
/dev/snd/controlC0:  julius     3304 F.... pulseaudio
                     julius     4056 F.... pulseaudio
/dev/snd/controlC1:  julius     3304 F.... pulseaudio
                     julius     4056 F.... pulseaudio
/dev/snd/controlC2:  julius     3304 F.... pulseaudio
                     julius     4056 F.... pulseaudio
/dev/snd/pcmC0D3p:   julius     3304 F...m pulseaudio
/dev/snd/pcmC1D0c:   julius     3304 F...m pulseaudio
/dev/snd/pcmC1D0p:   julius     3304 F...m pulseaudio

The new device is on /dev/snd/pcmC2* so it doesn't seem to be used by something 
else. I'm a bit surprised there are two pulseaudios with different PIDs active 
though. Could that be a problem?
I'm in a phone call (pcmC1) and playing music over HDMI (pcmC0D3), so it's 
correct it's using those devices. When I do a reboot, it seems the device is 
always recognized properly. It's just hot-plugging which doesn't tend to work 
correctly.

Title:
  USB microphone inputs not detected by Pulseaudio on Kubuntu Trusty

Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When I connect an audio device using USB, I can only use it to play
  back stereo sound. Anything else is not detected. I tried it with two
  different devices and they both give me the same result. Neither in
  KDE nor in Google Hangouts, I can use my microphone. It does not show
  up as a selectable input device anywhere.

  ALSA does seem to correctly detect that these USB devices have a
  microphone.

  The microphone of my internal audio does work.
