JimR - 2021-02-27

Fedora 33 KDE spin. I recently bought a USB web cam with built in mic. Works fine on Windows 10 on same machine (dual-boot).

When I select the mic using alsamixer, I am able to move the volume up to mid-level. But when I use Zoom for a meeting, and start talking, within a few seconds the mic level drops to 0 and meeting participants can't hear me.

I tried using Audacity, and it seems to keep the audio level fine for doing a sound recording.

Where to look, what to try?
