[Bug 268301] Re: Macbook and Macbook Air microphone not working

 

I started this confusion by actually marking the bugs as duplicate, and
forgot about it when changing back the title. Even though the sound chip
is the same, there are other important differences between the MB4 and
the MBA. I will untie the bugs again, so we can mark one of them as
solved.

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.
