I hate to say this.. but "It works in Windows" (dual boot but nearly empty on
Windows).
Perhaps this is useful even though you do not like this phrase.
The Acer website has a 250 megabite Realtek driver for windows. I have
it downloaded but have not done anything with it. I am not sure if
that will help.
When I query my snd card it says Intel but I know it is Realtek. The
hdmi is intel

Title:
External Microphone of headset not working when plugged in
Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:

What I EXPECT:
I plug in a working headset.
The internal mic should be muted and speakers muted.
The headset and mic should work .
WHAT HAPPENS:
The headphones work but the microphone does not work.
The internal microphone (which gives me static)... still works even though it
should be muted.
(another problem? I have static in my internal microphone and therefore try
to fix this with an external plug in mic)
Perhaps there is a quick fix for hdajackretask advanced mode. I tried
setting pins 18 and 19 like the youtube video but nothing worked. I can mute
the internal mic through this program though.
Pulse Audio has been modified to not do autostart and I start it manually (to
make hdajackretask allow changes.
Yes I start it and the bug still exists.. (it existed before I modified it to
not repeatedly autoload).
Note: Without pulseaudio, I have no sound devices listed (this is new
to me) maybe a gnome thing which I am new to from lubuntu and mate
previously.
I tried irc #ubuntu and installed pulse volume control.. nope
I tried ask ubuntu.
lanchpad.net had outdated stuff that I am not clear on.
My computer is Acer c1yf.
Previously I opted for a shared bug report, but noticed it is different and
something could be fixed through alsamixer. I was not able to get it to work
nor understood what he did anyway. I played with Gnome alsa mixer,
hdaJackretast (as youtube video says) and even the conf file but could not get
anything to work.
I am on the mainline build 4.9 and latest 1.15 BIOS for acer 131t r3
downlaoded a few days ago (which caused me boot problems to fix). I
am up to speed to qualify for investigation so I wish some help.
