How do I change the channels in pavelcontrol?

Question

I had this problem in 10.04 and it was solved.

pavucontrol was the solution the last time, I muted one channel and the microphone worked then. But now in Ubuntu 11.04 I have to change both channels at the same time. as the screenshot shows.

So here is my problem.

I can't use my built in microphone in skype, but in windows I can.

skype -version gave: Skype 2.2.0.35

In pavucontrol, click the lock button next to the "ALSA plug-in [java]: ALSA Playback" section. This will unlock the two channels from each other and let them move independently again, then the issue can be solved by muting one channel as usual.
