sound problem

[Markus Lutzer]

Ok, I got it: I used gnome-volume-control added "Aufnahme" (recording)
and unmuted it. I  removed "line-in" and "microphone" because both where
useless and muting and unmuting had no affect. Seems like the default is
not correct. Something to fill a bugreport?

Finally I was not able to use the internal microphone. Also selecting
microphone 2 instead of microphone 1 didn't helped. I raised and unmuted
line-in, micorphone, mic boost but it doesn't helped. I guess I don't
have an internal microphone in the MSI Megabook S260...
