Dec 8, 2014 10:28 AM in response to Mixxieby AdrienC,I had exactly this same issue and and this workaround from Paul on another thread (Internal Mic not working for phone calls in Yosemite ) solved it :
- Make sure FaceTime App is not running
- Open Terminal
- type sudo killall coreaudiod
- Press Return
- Enter your computer's admin PW

Jan 2, 2015 8:46 AM in response to Mixxieby texasgrape1,I had the exact same problem. Just got off Apple Chat with Apple. They fixed it. It is a bug and here is all they had me do. Do this in exact order:
Go to Photo Booth and record a quick video to see if your sound works there, then playback to see if your mic is working. Mine was working fine. It just wasn't working in FaceTime.
Close PhotoBooth
Go to FaceTime and go to AUDIO call. Call someone. While talking to them switch over to VIDEO. It worked for me just fine. Hang up.
Now call them from VIDEO. It worked for me again.
I told the tech we didn't do anything, he said going into PhotoBooth, then into Audio 'reboots' the mic, for lack of a better term.
If this works let us know. Hope it works for you.

Jun 4, 2015 1:40 PM in response to steveip4by alexisyancy,This did not work for me.
I still have no internal mic option in input sound preferences and no headphones option in output sound preferences.
What gives?
