Everything on PulseAudio.
(Using a standard gnome desktop.)

Well, I've also tried arecord, gnome-sound-recorder.
These and Skype work with and without the BATCH workaround.

Steam and Discord have severe issues with the workaround.

The patch seems to trigger the issue as long as the device is in use -
even if just for playback.

With the workaround, if I use HDMI output and USB webcam, the sound is OK (i.e, 
this device not in use).
Sound card's line-out + any input source causes problem.

Title:
  Microphone distorted sound on ALC892/1220 on AMD chipsets

Status in Linux:
  Confirmed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Not sure if I'll report this upstream but there is definitely an issue
  with microphone recording on my desktop, this is not happening on my
  laptop which has a different codec.

  Already tried all workarounds possible, no luck. Only with my desktop
  with this particular motherboard. No issues in Windows, the sound
  recorded in there is distorted and has some static and robotic tone on
  high-pitch.
