Help with PulseAudio and Twinkle

[Chris Bredesen]

Hello list,

Sorry for cross posting but I'm hoping to find some extra eyeballs to 
work through this with me.  Here is my initial problem:

http://fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=178415

I seem to have (partially) solved this by using gstreamer-properties 
(thanks Seth!) to set the default input back to PulseAudio from 
"Custom".  Not sure how that changed, and I'd never heard of this 
utility till today.

I'm still left with an unresponsive mic.  PA volume meter shows flatline 
so it seems to be muted somehow, but everywhere I look shows that it is 
not.

Part of my problem is that I still don't really know how all this stuff 
fits together -- ALSA, PulseAudio and GStreamer.  Furthermore, it was 
all working till some recent event (maybe a pupdate, not sure) that 
nuked it for me.

Any help in diagnosing sound issues would be most appreciated.  I'll 
echo my solution back to here and the forum once I get it solved.

Thanks all!

-Chris

I think you meant fedora-devel-list. Hardly anyone reads the laptop-list.

Thanks Pete. This is a user question, so I definitely did not intend to 
use a devel list.
