Package: pavucontrol Version: 2.0-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
When using my laptop microphone (built-in or through a jack) the sound was very low. I tried to tune it through pavucontrol and couldn't. I tried to fix it through alsamixer without success. At last there was no more sound. I purged and reinstalled pulseaudio, gnome and pavucontrol without more success. I found that muting mic and mic boost through alsamixer brought back low input sound. I tried again to increase it through pavucontrol and found at last that it can be increased up to 39 %. Over 39 % there is no more input signal and no more capture. 39 % is just enough for normal use. But it is misleading and could be better. Thank you very much for your attention. Note - In order to be complete, maybe the jack microphone is not detected. I am not sure, but I think it is not a linked issue and it is sure that increasing the pavucontrol input volume mute any microphone.
