Recently I replaced my old webcam with a Logitech C920 and I'm
struggling to find a way to enable its microphone when it is not mapped
on /dev/video1 even though it is unmutted in pavucontrol.

In the PC I have another video device, a LifeView TV card, and the old
webcam was constantly mapped on /dev/video1

I wrote udev rules and set all programs that I know of to use the
symlinks, but unless at boot I have the luck to have the webcam mapped
on /dev/video1 the mike takes no sound.

Also no luck when I try to “force” its mapping on /dev/video1 by booting
with the webcam unplugged and plug it in before or after the logon

Only works if it happens at boot time.

I use Ubuntu 12.04 64bit.

Any suggestions where to start looking?

TIA,
Adrian
