[xubuntu-users] Firefox fails accessing microphone

[Florian Coste]

Hello,

I'm not an expert, but maybe it's more an issue related to the website
uberconference.com that something related to Xubuntu, don't you think ?
Moreover, you're saying that it doesn't work on a Windows VM. Do you know
if your microphone works with other application ?

Maybe the best way is to ask them to solve the problem by themselves :
http://help.uberconference.com/customer/portal/emails/new

By the way, there is other tools to make a videoconference, if you want.
You can use Firefox Hello <https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/hello/>,
or you can try with linphone <https://www.linphone.org/>

Cheers,
Florian
