Bug Description

Even if I activate 'line in capture' from Volume control, is not possible to listen microphone (or external microphone) sources, when playback is unmute.

My hardware is Acer5020 and volume control is using : ATI IXP (alsa mixer).

This is a very important issue, due programs like 'skype' need microphone to work.

Thanks for your help

Is important to note than internal microphone works with skype.

Choose 'ATI IXP (alsa mixer)' as a sound preference

And set 'Open volume control' to next options ...

Edit>Preferences>Activate :
(Master-PCM-Line in-Line in capture-CD-Microphone-Microphone capture-Mic select-Capture)

Then at 'Playback' tab set Microphone and line-in to unmute and at higer value
Then at 'Capture' tab set all to unmute and higer value
Then at 'Switches' tab activate Line-in and Microphone
Then at 'Options' set 'Mic select' to Mic1
