Microphone doesn't work in Hangouts












5















I have a DELL inspiron 5537 i5 laptop with Ubuntu 14.04. When I use Google Hangouts on Google Chrome, my mic just doesn't work. When I open the secure info setting it shows that the mic is allowed.
Works in Windows.



I have tried to add the Hangouts plugin and it also doesn't work.



Is there any to solve the problem?

  • Make sure the input device is correctly selected before anything else (click the sound-indicator > sound settings).

  • Of course make sure is not muted or very low.
