Microphone settings - skype

Recently I have been using mostly 'Skype' for the instant messaging and calls. I really liked the latest version of the skype on Windows.

On my Ubuntu machine I Installed Skype 2.2.x. This is definitely an older version of the skype and you will feel the difference if you moved from a latest version of it from Windows. Given that Microsoft now bought skype you can forget about a new version of skype for linux now I assume.

After installing Skype a realized that my microphone is not working. Made the below changes  in sound preferences to make it work.




Click on the sound Icon -> Sound Preferences -> Input Tab



Connector was setup as "Analog Line in". Changed this to "Analog Microphone/Microphone1". That's it now I can talk too :)
