Hi, i've been using Mint since a couple of days ago and it works great, but I have an issue with my microphone, I already tried most of the solutions I found in the forum.
Pulse Audio detects my mic, but when I try to use it, just doesn't works, people can't hear me, I tried with Telegram, Discord and Firefox, anyone can help me? Just don't want to go back to windows.

Re: Mint 20 xfce Mic doesn't works
I am just guesstimating here since I don't have my mic connected. but did you right click the 'Sound' and see if the 'Mute input' is enabled/disabled?
also, I looked around online and this might be even a better option... left click the sound, then 'sound settings', then 'Input' and increase from 0% to maybe 50% or whatever works well for you.
p.s. I am on Cinnamon at the moment, I got Xfce on my two backup machines, but what I said above might get you in the ball park.

Hi, thanks for response, I check the volume and everything looks fine, also, I could make it works in apps like Discord or some voice record webpages, but now my voice sounds like a robot, in Telegram still not working, and Telegram doesn't have microphone config options.
