Hmm... still don't seem to be getting any sound on the mic, which is the
longstanding problem  However, sound on the macbook air (the other bug
that has glommed onto this thread) seems now to work without the
model=mbp3 workaround.  Dunno if other folks can confirm that.

Is there anything else I should do on the mic front to gather more info?

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.
