I just cannot get Skype to pickup audio from the mic with FC6. I see others have had the same problem, but I can't find any definitive HOWTO on the matter. Let just say I've just installed FC6 fresh from dist, applied updates and got the latest (version 1.3.0_53) Skype RPM for FC5 and installed that. I know that my sound hardware and mic work (because it works perfectly with Windows). So what do I do/check next? As an aside: Is there *any* easy way to verify that the mic is working and enabled with FC6? A simple audio recorder or sound level meter? I would have expected this in system-config-soundcard and/or the volume control applet. Predictably the Gnome help yields nothing on this. Thanks, Joe.
