As far as I understand, problem with microphone is not solved with this patch, isn't? I have MacBookPro5,5 and I cannot get internal or external microphone works (at least in a usual way). Nevertheless, if I do arecord -c 2, I can get internal microphone works. In this case, it seems to only capture left channel.

The headphone jack fix has been included in the latest lucid kernel release (2.6.32-15). There's nothing new on the sound quality issue. In order to help keep the bugs manageable, I suggest that the sound quality issue be opened as a new bug so that this bug can be used for tracking the headphone jack sensing issue. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress = Fix Released -- Poor support for MacBook Pro 5,1: noise, no jack sense, no in-line headset microphones, broken volume control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488103 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

The hold up is due to a current kernel in -proposed. By policy, a kernel package must have been in -proposed for one full week for testing purposes before it can be pushed to -updates. The stable release maintainer is working to get the current one out to -updates, but if the new kernel with this fix is moved to -proposed it will overwrite the current package there, resetting the timer. Essentially, the fix will get out there for karmic eventually, but as a side effect of our duty to ensure that a stable release is not destabilized by updates the fix may take a bit longer.

[Bug 488103] Re: Poor support for MacBook Pro 5, 1: noise, no jack sense, no in-line headset microphones, broken volume control
@Alexey - indeed I can reproduce both the headphone noise plus the weird muting of LFE and Surround - this sounds like a bug in pulseaudio (since it is muting them in the first place and then not muting them) so I'd file a separate bug about that. Will have a look at trying to trackdown the static / noise in headphones... Also LFE is the standard name for subwoofer in ALSA and will likely break lots of things if changed - ie. this is represented by the simple fact that before my patch, the headphones were labelled 'HP' which pulseaudio didnt understand, but simply renaming it to 'Headphone' in my patch makes them controlled with the master volume - so names matter and in this case LFE should definitely not be changed as its basically a standard. -- Poor support for MacBook Pro 5,1: noise, no jack sense, no in-line headset microphones, broken volume control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488103 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 488103] Re: Poor support for MacBook Pro 5, 1: noise, no jack sense, no in-line headset microphones, broken volume control
Alex, thank you for a great patch! Everything worked as you said. However, I think the noise problem is still here. I'll check on my reference headphones tomorrow, and post. Moreover, setting model=mbp3 doesn't seem to fix the noise issues any more. Is that possible, or am I just confused? It would be lovely to have the headset microphone work, too. Can I help fix that in any way? If you provide some pointers, I can try to gather the relevant information under OS X, or to experiment under Linux. I'm pretty happy with C debugging and development, just don't know the ALSA stack. If the only thing that's blocking you is the lack of a headset, I'd be happy to help too. I noticed one other issue, which is probably not ALSA-triggered. There are volume sliders for Surround and LFE. I have no idea what Surround is -- it didn't do anything that I could notice. LFE is the subwoofer (low-frequency emitter) -- btw, it would be nice to have a better mixer name for it, if that's easy to fix :). The problem is this: if I use the GNOME volume control (which goes through pulseaudio), and turn the volume all the way down to 0, then hit mute, then LFE and Surround suddenly get set to 0. The only way to get them to return is to turn the volume up to a nonzero value, and then toggle mute twice (or use a full mixer). Seems pretty mysterious to me. The bad thing is that this results in people unexpectedly losing all their low frequency sounds -- I doubt many people aside from me look at alsamixer. Let me know what you think about the outstanding 3 issues. If necessary, I'll create separate bugs for them. -- Poor support for MacBook Pro 5,1: noise, no jack sense, no in-line headset microphones, broken volume control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488103 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 488103] Re: Poor support for MacBook Pro 5, 1: noise, no jack sense, no in-line headset microphones, broken volume control
Yep, the noise issue is definitely still there. I can unload and reload the module, and on some loads it's rather less noticeable, but always crackly at least for some volume slider settings (more on that later). On about 50% of the loads, it's a persistently loud crackly hissing noise with a period of a couple of seconds (it gets quieter and louder). I do consistently get the better (not crackly) noise scenario by switching to mbp3. I don't remember any more if mbp3 used to be even better, but probably not. At any rate, the current mbp3 is tolerable but not great. Regardless of which module I load, or how lucky I get with the random factors mentioned above, the noise level fluctuates depending on the volume slider. On mbp5, with all other sliders maximized, the noise peaks for Master volume are: 8, 17, 27, 36, 45, 55, 64, 73, 83, 92. The noise volume does not substantially depend on the slider setting (i.e. music is acceptable when it's loud, but useless when it's quiet). On mbp3, there is just a faint hint of crackling at those same settings, but the crackling is much much quieter. The white noise background seems to be about the same, maybe slightly quieter on mbp3.

I'm not sure what the difference is, but I've got no noise at all on my macbook. It is currently outputting to a set of speakers. I get a pop every time a sound is played after a period of no sound, which is likely due to the sound driver powering on and off when idle.

Well even though you definitely have the MBP 5,1 (and the same Subsystem Vendor IDs - which should automatically match to the mb5 model) it looks to have chosen the mbp3 model instead which would only happen if it was overriden when the module was loaded - can you see what the contents of /sys/module/snd_hda_intel/parameters/model is? Otherwise you could change the last line of alsa-base.conf from: options snd-hda-intel power_save=10 power_save_controller=N to options snd-hda-intel power_save=10 power_save_controller=N model=mb5 and manually specify the model yourself. -- Poor support for MacBook Pro 5,1: noise, no jack sense, no in-line headset microphones, broken volume control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488103 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 patch in comment #5 and unfortunately it didn't work on my MBP 5,1. The behavior is exactly the same as with backports-modules-alsa (which I removed before installing ASLA from source, as instructed). No auto muting, and it's impossible to mute the speakers and listen with headphones. Either sound comes through speakers and headphones, or not at all.

Are you sure you executed the following command: apt-cache --names-only search linux-backports-modules-alsa | cut -f 1 -d ' ' | xargs sudo apt-get remove --purge since you may have multiple versions of backports-modules-alsa installed.

I've developed a patch against alsa-driver-1.0.22.1 which should fix this (except for the 3-way headset microphone) - it enables auto muting of the speakers when headphones inserted and makes headphones volume controlled by the master volume), which you can test as follows: First make sure you don't have any versions of linux-backports-modules- alsa installed: apt-cache --names-only search linux-backports-modules-alsa | cut -f 1 -d ' ' | xargs sudo apt-get remove --purge Now download alsa driver source and the patch, and compile and install a patched version of the driver: cd ~ wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.22.1.tar.bz2 wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/174251/alsa-driver-1.0.22.1-mb5.patch tar xjf alsa-driver-1.0.22.1.tar.bz2 patch -p0 alsa-driver-1.0.22.1-mb5.patch cd alsa-driver-1.0.22.1 ./configure make sudo make install Now you need to reboot your machine.
