Comment(by mabawsa):
Hi Lennart, I tried Fedora's live CD and it had exactly the same issues on
my Dell M1330. The digital volume had no effect on ALSA. When I boosted
the volume through the control the record sound lagged and was unusable.
After killing pulse and reloading ALSA everything worked well.
Unfortunately OpenSuse produced no sound whatsoever so i couldn't test it.
Shall I download the Mandriva Live CD and test that?
So why is this an ubuntu specific bug (redhat-bugs #474477), indeed you
have commented on this bug. So I find it weird why I was chastised
earlier.
What I do not understand is why does pulseaudio not recognize the ALSA
digital mic control settings and simply relay these. Just now these have a
far superior quality than boosting the microphone via pulse and avoid
delay issues with some software. It used to do this in Hardy's pulseaudio,
what has changed?
If you can help or have any further constructive advice about where I can
file a bug then please advise.
