What type? I guess it's a jack-ed device. I ask because Ekiga does not 
work for all USB/BT devices...

This can sound quite simple but, have you also reviewed the microphone 
volume setting in Ekiga? How did you test your microphone? Is people 
saying that they cannot hear you? What about their volume settings? What 
SIP provider? Many questions, I know...

Also, test with another microphone. Last time I tried Ekiga with a cheap 
(3€) and old (year 2002) microphone it worked just fine :-)
