We could try disabling the mic that is not working, although that would feel a little like partial failure, it would still be better than current state.
To try this, first make sure no audio applications are running, including pulseaudio: echo autospawn = no >> ~/.pulse/client.conf killall pulseaudio Here are the commands to perform the change: sudo -s echo 0x0b 0x4f0000f0 > /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/user_pin_configs echo 1 > /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/reconfig to restart pulseaudio afterwards, delete ~/.pulse/client.conf - then start your recording program and retry. As for 'Input Source 1' btw, that's connected to a separate ADC input channel that's not usually used. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731706 Title: [Dell Studio 1558] Not Able to Select Correct Microphone Input "Internal Mic 1" -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
