solution for problems with a microphone using Skype
For some time I realized I was having some problems with the microphone using Skype on my Xubuntu. But in the end with a google and some testing I found the solution:
* From terminal run alsamixer
* Move up the " Mic" and activate it by pressing Enter * m
possibly the "Mic Boost " (if the microphone volume and bass) * Press
Tab to move to the view of recording devices move
* Here are the " Mic" and press Space to enable
* Move the "Capture " and enable it with the spacebar
* pressing Esc Exit
Restart Skype and then made a test with "Make a test call " find at the Options / Sound device .
