Did you check the audio capture options in kmix? It is probably
looking to the wrong input/capture device, or maybe muted.

not sure with how linux/phonon/KDE/pulse handle multiple sound devices.
technically, the camera should show up as a sound device with recording
support only. try systemsettings --> multimedia --> phonon --> recording
section . and see if the camera is listed there. it should be available
along with your default sound card. raise it higher in the list.
hope this helps.

The webcam is there and I can click on the Test button and see a video but no sound.
I played around with different options under the various tabs (under Sound Card the webcam is
there but when I click on it still no sound).
Aren't these USB devices meant to just simply work?
Any help greatly appreciated.

Since getting the webcam inbuilt microphone to work I now have another problem :-(
I have now removed the webcam (USB) but the KMix icon on the kicker bar doesn't adjust nor mute
the speakers. I tried all the configuration option in all the places I could find but still no
adjusting.
BUT, if I start a downloaded video using DragonPlayer I then get an extra option in the Kmix
mixer under the Playback Streams named 'dragonplayer: Playback Stream' and I can then adjust the
sound level and mute it.
If I play a YouTube video I then get, under the Playback Streams, one named 'ALSA plug-in
[plugin-container]: Alsa Playback' and again I can adjust sound levels and mute it.
Under System Settings > Multimedia > Phonon I have the laptops internal sound card selected for
everything and the 'test' button works - there is sound.
So how do I get the Kmix icon on the kicker bar to give me back my sound level control?
TIA,
Nigel

Right-click it, then 'Select Master Channel'.
Did that - no joy :-(
But logout/login did the trick...??!!
