could do with the space key, after "capture" is previously selected with the
tab key).

Funny....as running kernel 2.6.25.14-108.fc9.i686, SKype is working,
running kernel-2.6.26.3-29.fc9.i686 Skype has no microphone
recording.....I blame kernel for it.
Any Idea????
Clearly if you change only one thing and sound stops working, the kernel *is* to
blame for it. But something else my be the fix, if the kernel is changed to
tickle a problem elsewhere, although I suspect that the hardware is being
detected differently. You might compare the dmesg from boot of each of the
kernels and see if that provides useful information.
The very first thing I would suggest is to kill pulseaudio, just using alsa
sound and alsamixer has been far easier to get going for input on my systems. My
impression is that pulseaudio is trying to do cleaver things without providing
clever documentation or user interface. So it works for people who know the
secret, and they swear there is no problem, but there seem to be many tricks
which you can find only on unofficial web sites, in chat rooms, and the like.
At least you can try the dmesg compare and taking one possible source of the
problem out of the picture. See if that helps.
