This bug will not happen on Lenovo machines, since the headset-mic on Thinkpad is called Microphone instead of headset-mic.
This bug only happens on Dell machines which can't detect headset microphone from HW perspective, so when a headset is plugged in, a headset-mic and a headphone-mic will be showed in the sound-setting, and the problem only happens under this situation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1716359 Title: Unplugging headset with audio panel open mutes internal mic Status in unity-control-center package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This bug was reported by our OEM team, I'm opening this public bug.
