That's a good discovery. This change makes sense, as the different of PRESET_ATI_SB from PRESET_AMD_SB is about the position reporting. ATI_SB uses the legacy LPIB register read while AMD_SB uses the position buffer table. This could be verified by changing position_fix module option: 1 is LPIB and 2 is position buffer.
If we can confirm that this change generally improves the behavior, I can merge the fix quickly to the upstream. Can anyone else check it? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1801540 Title: Microphone distorted sound on ALC892/1220 on AMD chipsets Status in Linux: Confirmed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Not sure if I'll report this upstream but there is definitely an issue with microphone recording on my desktop, this is not happening on my laptop which has a different codec. Already tried all workarounds possible, no luck. Only with my desktop with this particular motherboard. No issues in Windows, the sound recorded in there is distorted and has some static and robotic tone on high-pitch. alsa-info on the attachments To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1801540/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
