installed. it did no good as far as int/ext mic sensing is concerned. only the left speaker tested good, there was no response when right speaker tested. the only change from prev .....38-10 is that alsamixer shows under F4 capture a mic bar but the mic (internal) had no sensing. an external mic was then connected - same results.

so back to ppa (#20)

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-alsa-driver-modules-$(uname -r)

after reboot the external mic was immediately seen/sensed and skype test center replayed the input.
