Hello there, this bug also affected me even though the Product model is a bit different. My laptop model is Acer Swift 3 SF314-56G which also use Realtek ALC256 (HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH) I use the fresh install of Ubuntu 19.04 with 5.0.0-31-generic kernel version. Is there any solutions or steps I need to take to make the microphone works? Both internal and external microphone is not working at all.

Everything works except the internal microphone. I have also tested with an external microphone and this didn't work either. I have worked my way through all the suggested solutions I could find, including trying to reconfigure the pins using hdajacketask. In pavucontrol I have options for Internal Microphone and Microphone (unplugged) but the internal mic only captures static noise. The latest HD-Audio Codec-Specific Models has configurations for alc255-acer and alc256 for some other models, but setting options snd- hda-intel model=MODEL in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf does not solve the issue with any of these.
