If you find the answer, please post it. I've been looking as well. Sometimes, Skype resets the volume from recording from mic after every call to 0 and I have to bring up my mixer and turn it back up - very annoying... I use KDE, by the way... In my case, the mic usually stays turned on, but the recording from mic level gets turned down. However, that's recent, and I have seen errant behavior with the mic getting turned off as well, in the past. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA
