[Bug 268301] Re: Macbook Air microphone not working

 

Bug still present in 14.04 and 15.04 on the Macbook 1,1.  This is real
pain as everything else works great and I only have 1 USB thanks to
Apple "coolness"! Has anyone fixed this or found a successful workaround
in the last 8 years?  Thanks.

Bug description:
  From orinoco8 at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=914510:

  I have tried for some time, but my macbook air microphone is still not
  working. It's running Ubuntu 8.04 (up-to-date).

  Tried alsamixer and turned on all the input devices. Skype picks up
  nothing (tested through test call). "Sound Recorder" records nothing.

  Sound works fine.

  From kosumi68:

  I can confirm that this problem has been present through all versions
  of 8.04, and it has not - to my knowledge - been fixed.

  There are several possible source of the error, so I am reluctant to
  guess on a particular package yet.
