Logitech c920 microphone not working in Ubuntu 18.04












1















Recently my Logitech c920 webcam microphone stopped working on my ubuntu 18.04.
Microphone (input) recognized by system but not catching any sound.
Skype and Cheese recognizing input but not catching any sound.
Not hardware issue. When re-booting to Windows 10 everything working well.
I am running out of ideas.
