Likely so. Works for me on  10.0-CURRENT r247601 with following in
loader.conf:
# Out : speaker + headphones
hint.hdac.0.cad0.nid25.config="as=1 seq=15"
# In : mic + external mic
hint.hdac.0.cad0.nid35.config="as=2"
hint.hdac.0.cad0.nid27.config="as=2 seq=15"

I got the same problem with my X220. Before the last Lenovo
HDA quirk commits everything worked fine, but I had to set
the default sound unit to 1.
Now I do not need to set the sound unit, audio output works
out of the box but recording does not work anymore. I fiddled
with nid config but got bored after the fifth reboot.



Ok, this smells like a recent regression.



Could be. I'm running 9-STABLE, not current, on my T520. I can only say
that the hints I provided work fine on my T520 on 9-stable.


Sorry for making noise. Now it works for me. Only thing is I
booted Windows in between, nothing else. Now Skype test call
works, before it did not.

Cheers
  Michael

I don't think so.  I see a "Stereo Mic" placement at the bottom of my
screen that I seem to remember working.

This would be a question for the hardware hacks among us ... is this one of
the onboard microphones that isn't?  By that I mean ... one where it uses
the existing builtin speakers and some fancy DSP work to construct a
microphone?

Using a 4 position (combined headphone/mic) head set with the T520 and
*no* device hints WORKS for recording and playback.

Its the onboard microphone that is not working for me.  No device hints
provided in this thread have solved the onboard mic issue.  Audio
playback through the laptop speakers works just fine.

It doesn't look like the laptop is seeing any input from the onboard
microphone.  

Connecting my cell phone headset to the jack on the laptop *works*.  The
laptop is not seeing any input from the onboard microphone.

I have a T520. It has an internal mic. Not USB. It also has a standard

Are you sure it's not a USB microphone?  What do you get when you run 
`usbconfig list`?  It's probably doubtful, since your keyboard could be 
PS/2 and manufacturers don't like change.  Also, what's the output of 
`pciconf -lv` just for clarity?

Yes.  I've toggled both, but I see no difference.  Zero input from on
board microphone.

p.s. physically, there is no microphone jack on this machine.  There is
just the headphone jack.

Was trying to get the microphone working, but it seems to not quite be
working.

By "not" working, there is no audio detected when recording.  Is there
something in here that looks like a thing that I should adjust?

http://people.freebsd.org/~sbruno/t520_sysctl_hdaa.txt


Verbose dmesg would be easier to read, since the provided sysctl output 
is mostly the raw input data. I see there that your system has two 
microphones. Have you tried to select both (mic and monitor) in mixer?

I agree. It looks like it should work.

sorry not to have more info to help,

After reading the man page for snd_hda and dev/snd/pcm/dsp.c src I don't think
you *need* hints in /boot/loader.conf to make it work, but you can re-arrange
'pins' and set auto stuff, like plugging headphones in selects the device. i
think.

here's some stuff to check. I am *guessing* it's 'recording' from a different
pin/device??

on this machine :

[1070] > syscntl hw.snd.default_unit 
hw.snd.default_unit: 3

[1071] > dmesg | grep pcm3
pcm3:  at nid 20 and 24,26 on hdaa1

[1072] > sysctl -a | grep nid20
dev.hdaa.1.nid20: pin: Line-out (Green Jack)
dev.hdaa.1.nid20_config: 0x01014410 as=1 seq=0 device=Line-out conn=Jack
ctype=1/8 loc=Rear color=Green misc=4
dev.hdaa.1.nid20_original: 0x01014410 as=1 seq=0 device=Line-out conn=Jack
ctype=1/8 loc=Rear color=Green misc=4

[1073] > sysctl -a | grep nid24

dev.hdaa.1.nid24_original: 0x01a19c40 as=4 seq=0 device=Mic conn=Jack
ctype=1/8 loc=Rear color=Pink misc=12

I think there's probably a pink jack on the back of the machine where i can
plug up a mic.

 a thought, did you already experiment to see if you can record something from
oss /dev/dsp devices?
I browsed through the source but I don't understand, at the moment, how to
'know' which /dev/dsp maps to pcm.

[1044] > ls /dev/dsp*
/dev/dsp0.1 /dev/dsp2.1 /dev/dsp4.1

Hi,
may be microphone (i'm talking about internal, but may be it also can
be applied and to external) just is not /dev/dsp (default). It my W530
it is - speaker is /dev/dsp, but internal microphone recognized as
/dev/dsp4
I use 'cat /dev/dsp..' while talking to microphone to find it, or
audio/audacity can be used, it allows to set input device.

$ mixer
Mixer vol  is currently set to  95:95
Mixer pcm  is currently set to 100:100
Mixer speaker  is currently set to 100:100
Mixer mic  is currently set to 100:100

All looks well to me.

Hi Sean,

I'm not an audio recording expert, but something to check:

what is the output of running the command 'mixer'?

also, there are three or four inputs marked 'mute=1', have to select the
proper input for recording and it can't be muted.
