I'm sorry for double posting. Can't see any edit button here :) I can confirm that the solution from The Mike is working on 10.10 as well.

I fixed this problem on my Acer Aspire 5520 Notebook. I had the exact same problems above, but can now record audio just fine with the internal microphone from the Acer CrystalEye Camera and Microphone combo. NOTE: This problem was experienced in Ubuntu 9.04 and Linux Mint 7. The fix was performed and tested in Linux Mint 7, which uses Ubuntu 9.04 as its base. Step 1: Download a href=ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.20.tar.bz2;Alsa drivers v10.0.20/a Step 2: extract the contents. b tar -vxf alsa-driver-1.0.20.tar.gz /b Step 3: Compile the driver b ./configure make sudo make install /b NOTE: I actually used a program called CheckInstall which creates a debian package that I can later install or remove at my leisure. If you choose this option be sure to install CheckInstall first, and also it may be necessary to install the finished package in this manner: b sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite alsa-driver_1.0.20-1_i386.deb /b Step 4: Configure alsa-base.conf Add the following line to the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf b alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel options snd-hda-intel model=acer /b Step 5: Reboot Sound recording should now work correctly on the Acer 5520. I experienced this problem with Ubuntu 9.04 and Linux Mint 7. The Fix works in Linux Mint 7, and should therefore work in Ubuntu 9.04, as they are essentially the same under the hood. -- Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 269294] Re: Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268
All bugs are considered as affecting the current development release. We don't want to make big changes post-release because that can introduce regressions...such as the one you've got here (that isn't, by the way, making a whole lot of sense to me since Daniel Chen just looked through the logs of what changed from -19 to -21 and this sound driver didn't change). LTS *just* means the amount of time during which the software will be patched, say, for security reasons. Bug fixes, when non-invasive enough to not introduce regressions, happen as well. About 2 years ago let's add support for newer hardware partway through LTS was introduced because having an LTS release that's only good if your hardware's old...not so good. So, new drivers get added, but old ones get the if it ain't broke... treatment. Make sense? Anyway, like I said, Daniel (resident audio guru) says there wasn't a change between those 2 kernels that's specific to your chip. He also wasn't active during Hardy's development cycle, so he needs to go through and see what's in there...maybe something changed elsewhere that's catching you. He wondered if the kernel in Hardy proposed still has the problem, and said he'd dig into it. -- Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

If it's a simple enough change, backporting the fix is possible. If it's not...well, all bugs are considered as affecting the current development release unless a task exists specifically for another version. I can open a Hardy task if you like, but it's not up to me on whether it'll end up being approved or not. -- Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 269294] Re: Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268
I know a lot of internal mics are busted in Jaunty. As for the jack, I just talked to a sound guy. He says that they'd have to add that entire quirk to Hardy because model=acer-aspire didn't exist back then. He said it might be possible to get it in linux-backports- modules. The person to talk to won't be online til tomorrow though, so I'll just make a note-to-self to ask. -- Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 269294] Re: Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268
Thanks Andres for the info. I was finally able to test with Jaunty alpha 5 Linux ubuntu 2.6.28-8-generic #26-Ubuntu SMP Wed Feb 25 04:27:53 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux, and with: snd-hda-intel model=acer-aspire I was able to record sound. The issue is now that Record from input: option in Sound Recorder does not provide a way to use the internal mic (the one with Crystal Eye webcam), I only have Mic Boost, Capture and Digital. Recording sound from the mic jack now works though. Note also that with: snd-hda-intel model=acer snd-hda-intel model=acer-dmic I get nothing (mute) when recording.

I tried to perform the above test with latest alpha Live CD (jaunty alpha 5) Linux ubuntu 2.6.28-8-generic #26-Ubuntu SMP Wed Feb 25 04:27:53 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux but when I try, I get the following error: ubu...@ubuntu:/etc/modprobe.d$ sudo modprobe -r snd-hda-intel FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel is in use. Also, when I try to record sound now I hear no more crackles but the audio is completely muted. I tried to set up different sources for sound capture but I get only the option Capture shown in the screen shot.

[Bug 269294] Re: Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268
Hi, thanks for testing.. the problem you're facing is caused by applications using the sound. So we need to kill those while on the LiveCD in order to test. 1.- be sure none sound application is running 2.- kill pulse audio. From a terminal sudo killall -9 pulseaudio 3.- kill mixer applet: this would need some commands but is doable. - sudo ps ax | grep mixer - you'll get a warning about reloading mixer applet.. don't close the window until you remove the module 4.- sudo rmmod -r snd_hda_intel 5.- made the changes to alsa-base 6.- sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel 7.- reload volume applet well.. it seems hard i know.. the other option is to install it directly at the machine and test more easily (reboots between changes). Hope this helps and let us find the issue. regards, -- Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I tried the jaunty alpha5 live cd - with no success.

[Bug 269294] Re: Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268
Andres Mujica: Adding ubuntu-studio and -plugins (under 8.04) causes a set of programs and libraries to be installed, these seem to depend on a special version of the kernel which is also installed, overwriting the current settings. Anyway, I'll pay more attention next time. Mackenzie Morgan: As I wrote, I can test with a live CD but: 1) I need detailed info on what to do for the test, otherwise all I can do is start the CD and see if the mic automagically works, this is hardly the case since most alpha or beta CDs are not even able to correctly boot on my laptop, not to mention loading all the proper drivers. I saw you now listed a couple commands to type, I'll be glad to try them as soon as I get a chance. 2) As I wrote before I'm using Hardy Heron that is a LTS, I'd expect the issue to be fixed on that version of the OS, without the need to update until the next LTS.

Re: [Bug 269294] Re: Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268
Can't you just use a live cd and do sudo modprobe -r snd-hda-intel then sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel after doing what Andres suggested? If you wait til Jaunty's released, it's probably not getting fixed in Jaunty. It'll be targeted at Karmic, and then we'll ask you to test Karmic, and then you'll want to wait until release and it won't be fixed there either and on and on (yes, this a common occurrence...why do you think Ubuntu releases with so many bugs? we don't hear about them until a week before release). -- Acer Aspire 5520 cannot record sound with HDA-Intel NVidia Codec ALC268 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Friends, I really do appreciate all you do and all that you give of yourselves to Ubuntu, Linux, and free software. However, that said this is what frustrates users and causes them not to bother submitting bug reports. This seems like trial and error attempts at bug fixing and what the users would like is for the piece of code that is causing the problem to be identified and fixed instead of this try this kernel and see if the problem persists. It is as if that no one seems to know what changed in the new kernel that might have an impact on the problem. Please, pleases don't get me wrong. I really do appreciate all who are looking into to this. Thank you. On many bug reports it will take weeks and weeks just to get anyone to read them and respond.
