Pacman -S skype made microphone in ventrilo not work[Solved]

Well, thats about it, after i installed skype trough pacman ventrilo won't record my microphone (neither VMware or wine) but it works fine in skype.
[edit]
Ok, now It's fixed
I did
pacman -Rd alsa-lib alsa-oss alsa-utils alsa-drivers wine skype
and rm -R /dev/snd  ; rm -R /dev/sound ; rm /dev/dsp
rebooted
rm /etc/asound.state
reboot*2
pacman -S alsa-lib alsa-oss alsa-utils alsa-drivers wine
reboot
all ok.
I probably didn't need all that or all those reebots but it made it work.
Oh, I also removed my ~/.wine

ok, No response in the skype forum.
so, how do i reinstall my sound(microphone) compleatley?
I tried pacman -Rf alsa-lib but that didn't work coz xmms and other applications used it (still, force is supposed to uninstall anyway, right?)
I find nothing about microphone only so I guess it's called something else or that it usually works if sound works.

  • Skype click to call is not working in Safari 6 wit...

    My Skype click-to call is not working on Safari 6 with OS X 10.7.4.  The number highlights, but when I click on the number, nothing happens. I do have Skype installed on the computer and it works fine. I am running Skype for the mac 5.8.0.1027 and skype extension for safari 2.1.0.10405. I have two other macs which are running OS X 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.7 and the click to call (2.1.0.10405) works great on both of those. I can not get it to work on the mac running Lion. Any help? Thanks

    I reverted back to Safari 5.1.7 from Safari 6 and now Click To Call works.
    For anyone wondering how I did this, you can view instructions here:
    http://apple.stackexchange.com/posts/59342/revisions
    I am new to using Macs and was able to follow these simple instructions. Takes a while for Pacifist to install 5.1.7, but it's worth it to have Click To Call working now.
    You will not be able to do this if you have Mountain Lion as Mountain Lion requires Safari 6.
    Lastly, the next time you update your Mac and it asks if you want to upgrade to Safari 6, say NO. At least not until you see that a fix has been posted here in these forums by either Skype or Apple.
    P.S. I posted this reply using OSX 10.7.4 and Safari 5.1.7

  • Microphone and webcam not working on Yoga S1 after windows 10 update

    I have to admit I never tried the webcam since I got my Yoga which had win 8.1 originally installed on it, but with the update to windows 10, I'm trying more things out. I did install the camera driver from http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-yoga-series-laptops/thinkpad-yoga?c=1  but no luck.I dont even see any kind of camera in device manager. The camera app just says "something is wrong" amd closes. I tried Skype and it also could not detect a working webcam. After installing  windows 10, I did try Cortina and it had me go into microphone setup and it was working. However after subsequent updates, it no longer works. The micropphone levels are ll the way 100%, but when I try to setup the mic, I never see the level meters move when trying the speech test dictation,. Ive installed the Conexant drivers in the the above link, and also uninstalled them and tried to go back to what are the default microsoft drivers, neither seem to wor  

    Hey 22d05da3,
    Hey I see that you're having an issue with the webcam and microphone.
    This could be a hardware issue knowing both of these features are in the same module
    But first,
    Can you go to device manager then go under the section that says imaging devices and tell me if the webcam shows up under there. Also, check and see if there's any type of exclamation mark next to it.
    Next, Go to the sound controllers section also and let me know if you can see the microphone underneath that.
    Now, these two don't have drivers to install from the website. What you can do is uninstall these drivers from the device manager then restart your Notebook. It should install the drivers after you restart.
    Also, if this doesn't work you can do a driver recover from the software. Here is a document to show you how to do that.
    http://goo.gl/XjqLp
    Go down to the section that says "Reinstall the original webcam program that came with your computer".
    If any other issues come up before this like you can't find the drivers in the device manager. Go to the section on that document that says " Webcam is not listed in the device manager ".

  • Dv7-6059eo, microphone and camera not working, have re-installed the system, updated drivers etc.

    Hello. A couple of days ago, my microphone and camera suddenly stopped working. When I started up my camera in Skype, it said "Please open YouCam" or something like that, and when I did, it told me to update it. So I did. Then it told me that I had to uninstall the current version of YouCam. When I did and tried to install the update, it said something like "no video device detected".
    After updating drivers and un-/installing things, I recovered my whole computer to fabric options. Still not working. So I suspect that it might have something to do with the hardware. Although I don't know what should have caused it, as it just happened randomly in the middle of the day.

    Try the User Tip suggestions first.  Your system does need a plist, but a properly working OS X automatically generates any needed plist files when you launch the associated app (if its plist does not already exist.)

  • Microphone and Webcam not working/We​bcam not recognized by YouCam

    Hello,
          I have a dv7-6c95dx and my YouCam  program tells me that it does not recognize my integrated webcam. I have read all of the webcam forums on this site and clicked on all of the links people have posted in the forums. I have uninstalled the CyberLink YouCam program and it still comes up with the same messages. The webcam also does not show up in my device manager. The microphone is malfunction as well, it will not work any any programs including skype. 
         I have heard that the webcam can come unplugged internally, will that also cause the microphone to stop working? I have run out of options and I do not want to pay anyone to fix it. I would appreciate any advice on this subject. 

    Hi DillOrNoDill,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP Pavilion dv7-6c95dx Notebook and sound and microphone issues and Webcam not working correctly. I would be happy to assist if needed. Try these steps first.
    1. Right click speaker icon (right hand corner)
    2. Select Playback devices
    3. Right click Speakers

    You could also try Microsoft troubleshooter located on your Notebook.
    Here is a document on WebCam troubleshooting. The Webcam will be listed in your device manager under Imaging devices. You should be able to click the action button and scan for new hardware.
    Hope this helps.

  • Microphone in messages not working?

    Hi everyone,
    Okay I have an iphone 5c, running iOS8. When I go to the message app, the microphone is either there and grayed out, or not there at all.
    I went and erased my iphone completely, and when the homescreen and everything came up afterwards, it showed up in the message app, and looked like it would work! (The circle came up after I pushed it). But I wanted to restore the apps and items from a previous backup onto my device. After doing so,..the microphone is again either gray or gone completely. Why is it doing this? Thank you for any help you can provide!

    By now, the Problem gets bigger and bigger. More and more Users complain about it. The first call from a customer, they accept in the morning does not work in cause of they accidentally are in Softphone-Mode without having a Headset attached. Voices raise from Managers, that we should rollback the Jabber installations.
    Are we really the only ones with this Problem?

  • Flash movies made in keynote are not working in firefox

    I have just finished a 65 page iwebsite at
    www.acendedmasterscards.com
    it is a card reading with a flash movie - made in
    keynote for each card. It looks beautiful in
    Safari but in firefox I get a blank white bit
    instead of the movie. Help! I would also love
    comments on the site! Karen.

    I join in the other's congratulations as your site is wonderful. I really enjoy it and I have bookmarked it that I too can post a link to it when I get to an appropriate place in my web building. I will inform you of it.
    I really like what you did with flash and I was trying to do something similar using keynote but I was exporting to a podcast instead of flash and it was never working right. I now thanks to you might try to do it in flash.
    As far as the other browsers are concerned you might ask the question on the keynote forum as well perhaps one of the experts there will have another idea as to why it does not work. In the mean time keep positive thoughts and perhaps safari will become the new ie since it has been released to windows.
    Thanks for sharing

  • Today my iphone 5's microphone icon is not working for Notes.  Worked yesterday...

    I have been using my iPhone 5's app Notes to dictate my inventory and send it to my computer rather than typing in everything... until today. The microphone icon in Notes is gray.  I checked Messages and Mail to find that the microphone is operable within those apps.  Where do I go from here?

    Hi Kaelekulin7,
    Dictation is one of my favorites features on the iPhone as well!
    If it is working in some apps and not others, I would suggest you:
    1) Close the Notes app
    2) Reset the iPhone
    3) Restart the iPhone
    iOS: Force an app to close
    From the Home screen, click the Home button twice.
    Tap and hold on the app.
    When it starts to jiggle, tap the red dot with the white minus sign to close it.
    Double-click the Home button and try opening the app again.
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • [Solved] pacman 3.5.0, --nodeps option did not work anymore

    I just updated to pacman 3.5.0, and i cannot install packages without dependency check.
    I mean command line like pacman -Sd or pacman -Rd did not work again.
    Last edited by jarryson (2011-03-17 08:57:26)

    Have a look at the news file and man page:
    -d, --nodeps
               Skips dependency version checks. Package names are still checked. Normally, pacman will always check a package’s dependency fields to ensure that all dependencies are installed and there are
               no package conflicts in the system. Specify this option twice to skip all dependency checks.

  • Skype for Windows 8 will not work

    Hi. I have a HP laptop with Windows 8 already installed. It'When I first got the laptop my skype worked fine but a few weeks ago I logged out and it won't work. This message appears everytime I try to log in: "Ooops... there was a problem. Please restart skype or try again." This happens after an extremely long loading time. I uninstalled and reinstalled Skype for Windows 8. I tried this several times and it still will not work. I greatly appreciate any help.

    The same thing is happening to my Skype on new Windows 8 Ansus Laptop. Can someone at Skype please resolve this issue.

  • Satellite C650-197 Built In Microphone and Jacks not working

    As the title, I tried to use the my microphone that comes inbuilt on this model (integrated VGA Web Camera with built-in microphone) and found its not working. Tried to plug in an external microphone via the mic jack and still not recording.
    I cant seem to find the drivers for the inbuilt or the jack anywhere.
    Any ideas?

    Hi
    > I cant seem to find the drivers for the inbuilt or the jack anywhere.
    Such drivers dont exist. The sound card driver controls everything.
    I think you should firstly start the webcam software and should test the mic because the internal mic is a part of the webcam.
    The webcam software provides an tab; settings and properties. In one of these tabs you would find settings for audio.
    There you could increase the mic volume and could record small audio session.
    Additionally I recommend checking the settings in control panel -> sound.
    Be sure that mic volume is set to max. Don't forget to check hidden and disabled devices there...
