I installed Ubuntu 12.04 for Toshiba AC100.

I wanted to record sound, and to use a microphone in empathy (for voice calls).

I tested the microphone/recording with:

arecord a.wav; aplay a.wav; rm a.wav

but could here no sound.

I wondered whether the computer has an internal microphone. (That would be strange to have a working built-in camera, but no built-in microphone, wouldn't it?) Probably, it must have a built-in mic -- http://ac100.wikispaces.com/%D0%BC%D0%B8%D0%BA%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%84%D0%BE%D0%BD .

But anyway, I went on to test sound recording with an external microphone.

Same result: no sound.

Is it possible to use a microphone at all?
