If your sound card is not detected, you may need to manually install the drivers for it. How you do this will depend on the card you have.

You can see what sound card you have by using the <cmd>lspci</cmd> command in the <app>Terminal</app>. You can get more complete results if you run <cmd>lspci</cmd> as <link xref="user-admin-explain">superuser</link>; enter <cmd>sudo lspci</cmd> and type your password. See if an <em>audio controller</em> or <em>audio device</em> is listed—it should have the sound card's make and model number. <cmd>sudo lspci -v</cmd> will show a list with more detailed information.

If you can't get drivers for your sound card, you might prefer to buy a new sound card. You can get sound cards that can be installed inside the computer and external USB sound cards.

You can use an external microphone for chatting with friends, speaking with colleagues at work, making voice recordings, or using other multimedia applications. Even if your computer has a built-in microphone or a webcam with a microphone, a separate microphone usually provides better audio quality.

If your microphone has a circular plug, just plug it into the appropriate adapter on your computer. Most computers have two adapters: one for microphones and one for speakers. Look for a picture of a microphone next to the adapter. Microphones plugged into the appropriate adapter will usually be used by default. If not, see the instructions below for selecting a default input device.

If you have a USB microphone, plug it into any USB port on your computer. USB microphones act as separate audio devices, and you may have to specify which microphone to use by default.
