Pulseaudio fails to record any sound, even though the sound configuration applications (both KDE and Gnome) correctly show the input level as I speak something.
I am using the microphone built into my Logitech webcam. No microphone is connected to the sound card built into the motherboard, and this device is disabled for input.
I configured Pulseaudio using pavucontrol, as suggested in this answer: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/13571/10950. I am running Debian Wheezy (Stable). Tried Gnome sound recorder and Skype for recording.
How can I fix it?
