Public bug reported:

I have Sound Blaster Audigy 5/Rx, using the well known snd_emu10k1, but I 
cannot use it as both input and output device: it's working either as output or 
as input but not as input/output.
I have installed "pavucontrol", when opening it in "configure" there are 
different options:

    Output "Analog Stereo"
    Output "Digital Stereo (IEC958)"
    Output "Surround 5.1"
    Output "Surround 4.1"
    Output "Surround 2.1"
    Output "Surround 7.1"
    Output "Surround 5.0"
    Output "Surround 4.0"
    Input "Analog Stereo"
    Input "Digital Stereo (IEC958)"

If I pick one of the "output" I can hear the sound but the microphones
are greyed out in the audio panel and I can't use it in any application.
Instead if I select "Input "Analog Stereo"" I can record the audio but I
can't hear any output!

The volumes are turned up according also to a previous post I did
related to similar issue I had in the past.

The only workaround found so far is to execute: "pacmd load-module
module-alsa-source device=hw:1,0".

Please find attached "alsa-info" report.

Everything was working fine in Min 19.3 but not in Mint 20 (based on Ubuntu 
20.04):
