[Bug 882427] Re: Toshiba Satellite L745D - internal mic not working
** Description changed: + === Workaround: Disable Fast Boot in BIOS === + I have a Toshiba L745D (AMD A6-3400M). I cannot get my internal mic to work. + My sound card: Conexant CX20585 I've tried this: echo options snd-hda-intel model=thinkpad | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf echo options snd-hda-intel model=ideapad | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d /alsa-base.conf echo options snd-hda-intel model=asus | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d /alsa-base.conf ...but that didn't work either. Apparently that works for different notebook models with the same sound card. I also tried muting the right mic channel; that also worked for someone on a different model. Here is my ALSA information: http://www.alsa- project.org/db/?f=6b57a7faecf5525ccb5212a6f60ee9d1bc792838 Any solutions out there? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/882427 Title: Toshiba Satellite L745D - internal mic not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/alsa-driver/+bug/882427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 882427] Re: Toshiba Satellite L745D - internal mic not working
Ok, that's valuable information. If the internal mic says Conexant, it's definitely on the internal sound card. But if that is, it surprises me that the models tried above do not work. I wonder if Conexant does something undocumented or out of the ordinary to make the internal mic work, or if the BIOS just forgets to mark the internal mic as an internal mic. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/882427 Title: Toshiba Satellite L745D - internal mic not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/alsa-driver/+bug/882427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 882427] Re: Toshiba Satellite L745D - internal mic not working
Thanks David, you mentioning my BIOS forgetting to mark the internal mic gave me an idea. Upon further research, people with Windows 7 have also been experiencing this bug also with the default install; I reinstalled Windows 7 and used the default sound card drivers instead of the official Conexant drivers and that's why I think my mic worked in Windows 7. If you have 'Fast Boot' enabled in the BIOS Ubuntu will not recognize the microphone. Here is my ALSA information after I switched back to 'Normal Boot': http://www.alsa- project.org/db/?f=0e81ce3afc0effc162ae19c608137bd5969a0f44 And the good news is that my internal microphone is now working, but I had to reinstall Ubuntu to get my microphone working unfortunately. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/882427 Title: Toshiba Satellite L745D - internal mic not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/alsa-driver/+bug/882427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 882427] Re: Toshiba Satellite L745D - internal mic not working
Hi, The problem here is that according to BIOS, you don't have an internal mic on your internal sound card. It might be that the microphone is connected to the webcam in this case, looking at the way things are presented here: http://us.toshiba.com/computers/laptops/satellite/L740/L745D-S4220RD/ that might be the case here. If so, trying different models will not help. Could you attach the output of lsusb -v to help us determine that?

[Bug 882427] Re: Toshiba Satellite L745D - internal mic not working
There you go, I attached the output for you. And yes, I think the microphone is integrated into the webcam. ** Attachment added: lsusb -v output https://bugs.launchpad.net/alsa-driver/+bug/882427/+attachment/2579950/+files/log.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/882427 Title: Toshiba Satellite L745D - internal mic not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/alsa-driver/+bug/882427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 882427] Re: Toshiba Satellite L745D - internal mic not working
If it is, there's not much sign of it the lsusb -v output either. Maybe it's using some proprietary protocol for the audio stuff. Either way, it seems non-trivial to resolve the problem. If you dual-boot windows, you might be able to figure out that way whether the internal mic is connected to the built-in sound card or the webcam, but even if you do, I'm not sure how to proceed in supporting this device, especially not if it's webcam connected.

Just want to add that the microphone works in Windows.
