Worked for me, too. Required one additional step though: from Applications --> Sound & Video --> PulseAudio Volume Control --> Input Devices (or start pavucontrol in a terminal), I had to mute the right channel of my internal audio/microphone. Click the lock to prevent any changes, and disable auto adjustment of microphone levels in skype.
By the way, these steps solved similar issues I had with the new "make phone calls" feature in gmail (possibly with gmail video chat as well, need to check). -- Regression, system does not capture sound from microphone https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574504 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
