Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu. Ubuntu 10.10 (maverick) reached end-of-life on April 10, 2012.
See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases Please upgrade to the latest version and re-test. ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- 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/691283 Title: audio control does not affect volume and microphone input is not recieved Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: pulseaudio Using: Ubuntu 10.10 on an HP Pavilion dv6 laptop While in a Skype call the other call member complained the noise from my computers fan was too loud. I plugged in an external microphone that I know works, having tested it with a desktop computer running Windows XP. However, the person I was in a call with complained that they could not hear me at all. I found that if I turn off my computer, then turn it on again, the microphone does work and I can be heard fine using Skype and the System>Preference>Sound app registeres input sound. However, after a couple of minutes, my microphone goes dead, I can't be heard on Skype and the System Sound application registers no sound. On trying to fix this problem, I followed the instructions on this page: http://www.stchman.com/alsa_update.html The terminal responded then restarted my laptop. However, on the boot- up sequence the system froze. I pressed the power button until the system shut down, booted up and tried again. On the boot-up sequence the same thing happened, so I turned off and booted up again. Now, the volume control on the panel will not affect the volume at all. Thanks for reading.
