[Bug 453966] Re: dell xps m1330 regression, integrated digital microphone no longer working [karmic koala]
Not sure if my problem is related to this one but the symptoms sure are similar. I've got a spanking new Sony VAIO CW-series notebook and after a fresh install of 9.10 Sound was working perfectly, playback, the internal digital mic, my bluetooth headset (including A2DP), the lot. But soon after some upgrade broke a bunch of stuff, here's an assessment of the situation: - Internal mic doesn't work. Alslamixer reports three capture devices but only lets me choose between front mic, mic, line and CD, not a word of the digital input there. - Line in jack on the computer works but I haven't got an external mic so that's not of much use (tested it with headphones) - I'm having problems with audio playback from Spotify running under Wine. Sound crackles, sometimes stutters and occasionally the entire application stops outputting sound at all. - Bluetooth headset no longer works as sound input but playback works fine(!) I've tried upgrading alsa to 1.0.22 but still no go. -- dell xps m1330 regression, integrated digital microphone no longer working [karmic koala] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453966 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

@slamdunk: Please try the following approach: 1. open pulseaudio sound preferences (I use the gnome applet) 2. open the input tab 3. in a terminal start alsamixer -V=all 4. move to Input Source [Mic] with cursor right and switch to Digital with cursor up or cursor down 5. check whether your mic works using the volume meter in the pulseaudio sound preferences I have to do this each time I boot my Dell laptop since I didn't yet find a better solution. Obviously pulseaudio doesn't offer to select the digital mic as input source although alsa knows it.

@slamdunk Well, I hope it was worth trying (and I assume you got a digital mic). I've successfully used this approach with Dell Latitudes E4300 and E6400. P.S.: Just if you want to try - I've installed alsa 1.0.22 from https://launchpad.net/~thefirstm/+archive/experimental. It is packaged for Lucid but works well with my Karmic with a 2.6.32 kernel.

Same issue with precision M4400. The internal mic worked on a clean 9.10 install but external mic would not. The only way to get the external mic working is to run alsamixer and change the digital input to analog. To revert to the internal mic I have to run alsamixer and set the digital input to digital mic. -- dell xps m1330 regression, integrated digital microphone no longer working [karmic koala] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453966 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

@Daniel T Chen This is what happens when you have 5 different bug reports open trying to track down the one most relevant... you sometimes post incomplete information in the wrong thread. However, since I'm here I would like to add that I installed linux- backports-modules-alsa-karmix-generic in my first attempt to get my external mix working on my clean install last month. This did enable the external mic but disabled the internal one. It was only after removing the backport module that I discovered the trick of switching the digital input. So, perhaps I posted in the wrong place but the symptoms are the same/similar so make of it what you will. -- dell xps m1330 regression, integrated digital microphone no longer working [karmic koala] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453966 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

As I'm experiencing this bug too, on an xps m1330n, i did a little bit of research. I tried to follow the walkthrough in post #7 but that failed, as I couldn't change the mic input. I then reverted alsa-utils and alsa base to the first karmic version (1.0.18 for both of them) and, while the mic was not functioning straight away, I followed the forementioned walkthrough which resulted in a **functioning** mic. It therefore seems an alsa related bug.
