I have on-going problems with the mic on my system also. Alsa always sets the mic controls I need back to 0 and won't ever save what I was using. Each time I need the mic I have to enable 3 settings in KDE mixer. (which also exist in Alsamixer if you prefer to use that tool - hit F4 once in it) --- Front Mic - turn it on. My system has 4 settings. I raise it by one click at least. Note that in KDE I must grab the one on the right. The one on the left won't raise the pair. Alsamixer only shows one control. --- Capture - turn it up to 80% or so --- Digital - turn it up to 80% or so These settings work for me but Alsa won't save them on my system like it save headphone/PCM/Master settings so I have to turn them on by hand every time.. HTH, Mark
