Logitech C270 Webcam no sound

**phorgan1** · February 10th, 2011

I'm on Linux dell 2.6.35-26-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Sun Jan 30 08:10:51 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux

My new web cam from logitech works fine on video, but nothing on sound.

I've read several posts with the same problem, but their solutions don't work for me. I plug in the camera, and the microphone is not recognized:

Code:

[  611.264188] usb 2-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6
[  611.613398] uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device <unnamed> (046d:0825)
[  611.710392] input: UVC Camera (046d:0825) as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb2/2-4/2-4:1.0/input/input15

Someone suggested going to preferences/sound and enabling '0825 Analog Mono'. Of course it's not there. Someone else suggested adding audio to /etc/hotplug/blacklist. That didn't change anything.

Anyone have an idea? HELP!

All I had to do is sudo modprobe snd_usb_audio and the right device appeared. After that I had to unmute it and select it for the software I was using, yay!
