** Description changed: I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 on a Lenovo ThinkPad T450s. This notebook has a combined headphones/mic "headset"-jack as used by pretty much every smartphone nowadays. I have a Plantronics-Headset HW251/A - SupraPlus Monaural and a 4-pin 3,5mm jack cable, made for use with PCs. When connecting the headset to the notebook, I get audio but the mic is not recognized. In contrast, when I boot Windows 7 on the same machine, the headset (including mic) works fine. Moreover, the headset works fine connected to an Apple MacBook Air. In contrast, I also have an Apple Earphones-Headset which came with an iPhone, this also works with the ThinkPad under Ubuntu. - By saying "not recognized", I mean that in the audio settings of Ubuntu, - when plugging in the Plantronics headset, no audio input "microphone" - comes up and the internal mic of the notebook is still used. + By saying "not recognized", I mean that in the audio settings of Ubuntu, when plugging in the Plantronics headset, no audio input "microphone" comes up and the internal mic of the notebook is still used. + --- + ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 + Architecture: amd64 + AudioDevicesInUse: + USER PID ACCESS COMMAND + /dev/snd/controlC0: buerger 2021 F.... pulseaudio + /dev/snd/controlC1: buerger 2021 F.... pulseaudio + CurrentDesktop: Unity + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 + HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=21eeaf61-c437-45dc-80e3-e581eb6f795c + InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-09-15 (366 days ago) + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" - Release amd64 (20150422) + MachineType: LENOVO 20BX000XGE + Package: linux (not installed) + ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb + ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-36-generic root=UUID=93fc15f9-4090-40ff-a3ac-a642833f1da2 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-36.55-generic 4.4.16 + RelatedPackageVersions: + linux-restricted-modules-4.4.0-36-generic N/A + linux-backports-modules-4.4.0-36-generic N/A + linux-firmware 1.157.3 + Tags: xenial + Uname: Linux 4.4.0-36-generic x86_64 + UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to xenial on 2016-04-22 (146 days ago) + UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo vboxusers + _MarkForUpload: True + dmi.bios.date: 05/25/2016 + dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO + dmi.bios.version: JBET60WW (1.24 ) + dmi.board.asset.tag: Not Available + dmi.board.name: 20BX000XGE + dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO + dmi.board.version: SDK0E50510 WIN + dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Information + dmi.chassis.type: 10 + dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO + dmi.chassis.version: None + dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvrJBET60WW(1.24):bd05/25/2016:svnLENOVO:pn20BX000XGE:pvrThinkPadT450s:rvnLENOVO:rn20BX000XGE:rvrSDK0E50510WIN:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrNone: + dmi.product.name: 20BX000XGE + dmi.product.version: ThinkPad T450s + dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO ** Attachment added: "AlsaInfo.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1623804/+attachment/4741787/+files/AlsaInfo.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1623804 Title: headset microphone is not recognized in headset-jack To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1623804/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
