Re: [tlug] Accessing microphone



TLUG,

Made some progress. Found a bug report that referenced the error output I mentioned before. It said to comment out a reference to .asoundrc.asoundconf in a file called .asoundrc. So I did that, and it removed the error output, and also allowed me to start gnome-sound-recorder. The bug report is here:
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/alsa-utils/+bug/33420

However, I'm still not getting microphone input, so does the output below reveal anything? Again, I've made sure to un-mute the microphone channels.
