This might be a handy workaround for Skype until the pulseaudio bug is completely fixed:
Create executable /usr/bin/skype-wrapper with the following content: PULSE_SERVER=127.0.0.1 /usr/bin/skype & And now change the desktop file so that the new script will be called when using the menu: sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/skype.desktop and change Exec=skype to Exec=skype-wrapper When you open Skype, go to Options > Sound Devices, and select: - Microphone: HDA Intel PCH, ALC286 Analog Default Audio Device (sysdefault:CARD=PCH) - Speakers: HDA Intel PCH, ALC286 Analog Front speakers (front:CARD=PCH.DEV=0) - Ringing: HDA Intel PCH, ALC286 Analog Front speakers (front:CARD=PCH.DEV=0) Apply & Close or make a test call, and you'll notice everything (including the mic) works. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1228689 Title: sony vaio pro 13 internal microphone not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1228689/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
