    Hi Errol,<br>
    <br>
    I use Skype with a Logitech 9000 usb web cam and under Multimedia
    setting Phonon audio recording,<br>
    Recording, I changed the audio recording preference from Internal
    audio to QuickCam Pro 9000<br>
    and Audio is working.<br>

      Thanks Mark. I opened the kmix and am now starting to play with
      various combinations of hardware and setting possibilities.
      Meanwhile to no avail. The sound can be heard but no microphone.
      Will continue to experiment and report but my feeling is that the
      whole configuration is wrong. Maybe "pulseaudio server (local)"
      which is the only option I have in skype for sound isn't correct.
      I don't know.<br>
