Public bug reported:

Hi, I did a fresh installed of ubuntu 12.04.2 on my netbook HP mini
1001tu

After installing skype 4.1, I tested if the internal mic is working
properly. And apparently it didn't work.

========

The first attempt to solve this problem was referencing the following
site:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/155364/internal-microphone-not-working-
on-hp-mini

When I changed the setting:
 (terminal > alsamixer >  F4: Capture > Input Source)
>From "Mic" to "Line"

I could then detect the internal mic working by "PulseAudio Volume
Control" ( or using terminal > pauvcontrol )

I could also make my internal mic working by using "PulseAudio Volume
Control"

(Tab [Input Devices] => Internal Sound Device, Analog Stereo => Port: )
>From "Analog Input" to "Line Input"

=====

The internal mic was working now, therefore I went on testing external
mic/headphone jack (or hole? sorry for my bad English)

It works with headphone, microphone, and also headset (the mix of
headphone and mix both).

But after I unplugged these devices, I found that the internal mic was
not working anymore.

It had to be re-configure again according to the procedures of solving
internal mic fail.

=====

The second attempt to achieve correct auto-switching behavior is trying
to add settings to /etc/asound.conf or ~/.asoundrc

(according to:
http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/USB_mic_on_Linux#Setting_default_recording_device)

pcm.internal_mic
{
    type hw
    slave.pcm="hw:0,0,1"
}

pcm.!default
{
         type asym
         playback.pcm {
                 type plug
                 slave.pcm "hw:0,0"
         }
         capture.pcm {
                 type plug
                 slave.pcm "internal_mic"
         }
 }

I have tested "hw:0,0,1" is the presence of internal mic with
arecord -f dat -d 2 -D hw:0,0,1 test.wav

====

Unfortunately, this didn't work as expected. The auto-switching is still
not working properly.

I think this is reproducible, so I post this as a bug report.
