[Bug 277532] Re: Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop
The only solution to make microphone work is to install linux-backports- modules-alsa-generic... Just go to: Menu / System / Administration / Synaptic Package Manager And search and mark for installation: linux-backports-modules-alsa-generic tip: if you have multiple versions click on the first and read the description which should inform what name to install... If after the reboot and mic mute is off, still does not work, just go to terminal and type: sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and add or change the following: options snd-hda-intel model=auto enable=yes Then Ctrl+X, type Y to write and exit, reboot and mic will work. Bye and have lots of fun with Ubuntu (the best). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277532 Title: Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/277532/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

On a HP tx1220us, Karmic, you can't access important settings through Volume Control GUI (like ATAPI MIC). Instead you need to use alsamixer from a command line terminal: % alsamixer -V all Hope it helps... -- Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277532 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 277532] Re: Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop
I've just tested on a Karmic beta live CD and the volume on the mic is low but can easily be turned up in padevchooser. Once the mic volume was turned up it seems to work fine, I could record from the mic using the sound recorder, playback worked out of the box.

[Bug 277532] Re: Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop
I've had the same issue on 9.04 with my 1500 Vostro. I worked round it by disabling the HAL detect module in PulseAudio (default.pa) and only enabling an ALSA sink. ie. I didn't let PA 'know' about my built in mic. Also updated to the latest ALSA drivers, utils, libs, plugins and tools by downloading the code from the ALSA site make/make install/etc. The newer ALSA code fixed an issue with the mic not working well at all, stopping PA knowing about the built in mic fixed the low mic volume/recording problem. Just to re-iterate; 1) I had a driver problem fixed but updating ALSA to >= 1.0.19 (currently got 1.0.21(a) installed). This for my mic working 2) I stopped PA finding my internal Mic, this fixed the low recording volume problem while leaving PA in place to do good stuff with sinks, etc. -- Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277532 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 277532] Re: Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop
Interestingly enough, recording now works for me, with "HDA Intel (Alsa mixer)" selected in the Volume Control properties. This is after regular system updates up until yesterday. Volume is a little low, but audible. However, the red crosses on the mic icons in the Recording tab in the Volume Control dialog are still there and never seem to go away. I did face the funny time display problems with Sound Recorder when the recording was not working, but it seems to be OK now, so I'm unable to reproduce bug 282316. -- Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277532 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 have the same audio controller on a Dell XPS M1530. Like blue, my digital microphone does work, but its sensitivity is set very low and unlike Srix, I don't even have the digital microphone sensitivity control any more (which is a regression from Hardy). I've opened Bug #290505 for the missing digital sensitivity control because I think it's different from this bug, which is that the mike doesn't work at all. -- Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277532 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 277532] Re: Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop
I've confirmed this bug on a Dell Inspiron 1420 with onboard Intel HD Audio Controller (ICH8 family). My results are similar to the original reporter. I isolated pulseaudio as the culprit by killing it, adjusting volume controls, and then running Sound Recorder. It is possible to record sound with pulseaudio running. Sound capture has to be set to Pulseaudio Sound Server in Sound Preferences. But the recorded input is too faint, even at highest levels. ** Attachment added: "alsa-info.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18200138/alsa-info.txt ** Tags added: intrepid -- Recording does not work with internal microphone on Dell Vostro 1500 laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277532 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
