Okay, I'm holding off on reporting a bug because maybe things are more complex than I originally thought.
As I said, Debian's pulled a few new alsa packages into their testing distro, which is what I use. And since those packages were pulled in, my problems have largely disappeared. Actually, I tried to remove the "model=acer-aspire" option and rebooted my machine several times, and most times the recording just works now. So, I don't really see a smoking gun with this option anymore. That being said, I am having intermittent problems when after a bootup, I will try to record, and I can record one time successfully, and after that it'll stop recording properly until I reload the driver. Just reloading the driver will clear things up; model=acer-aspire isn't needed. Should I still post something to the devel list even though this is maybe not as definitive as I thought? - Paul > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: Re: [Alsa-user] Microphone not recording properly on ALC883, > Acer 3103WLMi > From: Paul Goins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Sun, November 18, 2007 9:09 pm > To: Lee Revell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: alsa-user@lists.sourceforge.net > > Gotcha.
