How do you have audacity configured to record audio? Does the same thing happen if you attempt to use sound recorder to record audio from your mic?
Unfortunately the ca0106 chip is known to have problems in Linux, due to the alsa developers not having enough information from Creative to make the chip completely work properly, as Creative have not released any specifications. You can try and update to the latest drivers, as outlined at the following URL, but I can't make any promises as to whether that will help. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/InstallingLinuxAlsaDriverModules Thanks. ** Changed in: alsa-driver (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/789393 Title: Microphone does not work on CA0106 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
