Much closed source software has a "Gold" release.
Fire up a console and launch 'alsamixer'. Check your microphone settings there.

Niki: I don't see anything for the microphone there!
Note: When alsamixer came up in the terminal window, the only view option seems to be for Playback, which is shown above. Should it be possible for me to get a view of Capture too? How?
In Skype, there's a small utility with a voice server, where you can check your sound configuration easily.
I use their test robot to test, but when I try it with Skype for Linux, when they are going to playback what I speak into the microphone, there's one beep and then almost immediately, a 2nd beep. When I do that while using Skype for windows, I can hear what I speak into the microphone.
I get the Digest version of the ML but I will check back, online, for further ideas today! Thank you for your very quick reply! Lanny
Are you sure that there are no more channels to the right? (keyboard arrows to navigate, 'M' to toggle muting.)
