[pulseaudio-discuss] Mic not working with PA

2009-09-23 Thread remrot
Hi! I have a problem getting the mic to work on a Toshiba 100 with an ALC861 chipset (no builtin mic). I tried Ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10 Alpha with the same results: the mic works during the live session but stops working after installation. Because of that, it's very likely not a bug within the ALSA

Thanks a lot for your help! I tried everything you suggested (except for checking /etc/pulse diffs, I'll do that later) without any luck. But I attached the output of 'pacmd list' as well as screenshots of pavucontrol and alsamixer. Imho, everything looks right. When recording with audacity, I ca

Thx for your fast response, very much appreciated! I started the live session and collected some data. I'll attach an archive containing the output of 'pacmd list' from both systems as well as the output of the ALSA info script that they provide for reporting bugs. Maybe that will give some usefu

I've already tried to determine the exact parameters for the alsa modules, but I don't know to do that (lsmod and dmesg don't help). The only thing I can do is compare the alsa-base.conf files where the options are stored, but these files are identical, except for the 'probe_mask'. But without that

Hi again! I found a workaround for the dead mic: adding 'position_fix=1' to the option list brought it back to life! However, it's still different from within the live system. The recorded stream is very quiet and contains significant noise, unlike in the live system where volume and quality were

Hi! Thx for your response! I've attached the amixer output for the live system (amixer_live.txt), the installed system with all options identical to the live system (amixer_installed.txt) and the output for the installed system using the probe_mask and position_fix options (amixer_posfix.txt). I
