Yasha, the built in mic is not working. Based on the results from google ( at least for Ubuntu) that seems to be a constant problem. I came across 2 possible solutions ( disable quick boot in BIOS and this one http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1568213&page=2 ). I"ll try it tonight.
There is another problem which seemed to plague my both machines pc and laptop - during shutdown the theme "good bye" music is jerky and with echo. Not that it's important, but on those rare occasions when i do have sound on, it's annoying.
