What devices are selected, and what are available for the microphone, speakers and ringing options? Also, try to use some audio editing app like audacity to record your voice. This just checks whether the problem lies with skype or with your system. > The thing is that Skype actually knows about the Web Camera since if i > test it under > the video controls i can see my face .

Some other things to verify: - is that the only microphone you have? - is that the one selected as a default recording device in pavucontrol? - is it muted? - did you try to logout/login into skype (sometimes it helps)? - did you try to turn on/off skype's option "allow skype to automatically adjust my mixer levels"? > I would be glad to try even any other application > that speaks > the Skype protocol if that thing would make things easier without > messing up anything .
