[Desktop-packages] [Bug 946232] Re: [Meta-bug] Missing speaker and/or internal mic port

[szu]

no input sources appear in the sound settings in ubuntu 13.10 even
though i can select inputs in pavucontrol (front microphone, back
microphone, line in). sound recording works (at least on the alsa
level).

this is the regression, as sound inputs sources show up correctly in the
old ubuntu 10.10 installed in another partition.

arecord -l

where can i find information about the relation between alsa and the
things that appear in sound preferences? who decides that the microphone
is present in pavucontrol but is missing from sound settings applet?

Bug description:
   Read me first 

  If you're suffering from one of the following problems:

   1) In the sound settings dialog, when you plug your headphones into
  the designated 3.5 mm jack, there is a Headphones device correctly
  shown, but when you unplug it, there is no Speaker device shown,
  even though you have internal speakers on your computer.

   2) In the sound settings dialog, when you plug your external
  microphone into the designated 3.5 mm jack, there is a Microphone
  (or similar) device correctly shown, but when you unplug it, there is
  no Internal Mic device shown, even though you have an internal mic
  on your computer.

  If so, please try the workaround in comment #32. IF AND ONLY IF that
  is working for you, please attach alsa info (see
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/AlsaInfo ) to this bug, together with
  the name of your machine (e g Dell Latitude D620). I'll try to
  include it in a list of devices that we have to manually enable and
  release it as an update to 12.04.

  Note: Assuming you run a standard Ubuntu kernel, this bug only appears
  in 3.2 kernels (uname -r should output something starting with
  3.2.). Therefore, another workaround would be to upgrade to a later
  kernel (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack ). If
  this does not help, you're suffering from a different bug, and then
  please file a separate bug report.

   SRU Justification ===
  First, sorry if this bug is a bit messy, but I think it would be even more 
messy if I spread the information across several bugs. Here's some explanation:

  The long-term fix is already in Quantal, because we backported the
  Phantom Jack support into Ubuntu's 3.5 kernel. Together with that
  comes a small PulseAudio patch, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
  audio-dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/519/debian/patches/0624
  -alsa-mixer-Add-Phantom-Jack-support.patch - the reason I want this in
  12.04 is to provide a better experience for users running the quantal
  kernel on precise, i e, the backport kernel coming with 12.04.2.

  In addition to that, while doing an SRU I could just as well add a few
  more quirks for affected machines showing up after the previous SRU,
  so that is now done in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-
  dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/520/debian/patches/0625-alsa-
  mixer-Add-a-few-more-machines-to-internal-mic-w.patch

  [Impact]
  Several laptops (see above list) are missing mostly internal mics, but 
sometimes also speakers in the Sound Settings / PulseAudio. This leads to an 
inability to control volume for these devices, and often not being able to use 
them at all.

  [Test Case]
  * Have an affected machine
  * Notice that when your mic is unplugged, the internal mic is correctly 
shown in the sound settings

  [Regression Potential]
  The quirk-style fix only affects the machines above. The long-term fix 
affects only users of a newer (quantal or later) kernel.

  

  I have an DELL Inspiron 6400. As it seems ubuntu

  As you can see there →

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 946232] Re: [Meta-bug] Missing speaker and/or internal mic port

[The_Letter_J]

but I don't get why you're trying to play back a configuration file...

Greetings, David -- yes, I was piping a textfile to the speakers, just to 
generate some noise (and prove whether they were working).  One can omit 
those lines, or replace them with aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav 
but my favorite is this alternative -- espeak I'll be back 
The advantage of using aplay with a *known* filename (in the context of 
my script) is there are no dependencies; that's the reason behind it. 

just running a 3.5+ ubuntu kernel (or 3.6+ upstream kernel) 
fixes this bug completely 

Can you please put that in the read-me-first description?  I actually 
looked for just such a phrase.  I realize that it says FixReleased for 
Precise at the top, but the comments are confusing... you talk about 
backporting to the 3.5 kernel, but you also specify that as Quantal, 
then go on to mention that you *want* it in 12.04.2 -- without ever 
coming right out and saying that it in fact now is in 12.04.3 (and .2?). 
I suggest this sentence:  If you're suffering from... 1)... 2)... The 
easiest fix is to update your system to the latest 12.04.3+ updates, or 
alternatively a 12.10-or-later installation.  If you have done so and 
still have problems, the workaround in comment#32 sometimes helps, but 
whether it does or not, please file a separate launchpad bug. 

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1236965
I have filed another bug for my specific issues over here. 

As to the more general issue of making audio not suck:

Over 80% of audio bugs, including this one, are specific to the codec
*configuration*, which is usually best described with the PCI SSID
number or vendor+model. Bugs specific to a codec (Realtek ALC892) or
controller chip (Intel ICH6) are much less common.

Well... I have a relatively rare motherboard SSID... but still

(alsa OR pulseaudio) (alc 892 OR alc892)==  94 hits 
(alsa OR pulseaudio) (1558:8000 OR 15588000 OR 0x15588000)==  zero 
hits 

Some rough back-of-the-browser calculations suggest that using the SSID 
as a key to debugging audio problems is rare, at the moment.  Maybe it 
makes sense to start using it?  If enough ubuntu people are aware of the 
SSID connection, and use it to debug their audio-related-difficulties, 
then launchpad search results specific to your motherboard or videocard 
would be much easier to locate.  I'll go ahead and paste my SSID stuff 
here, into the bug... making my comment the NUMBER ONE HIT when googling. 
Not that I'm bragging or anything -- humble to the core, that's me.  :-)

commands, hunting the ssid buried therein.  I've added some grep to the 
commands, which reliably extracts the info... on English installs only. 
Won't work if your system is German/Japanese/Esperanto/other.  I would 
modify the wikipage to show this trick, but it is immutable (sigh). 

A cleaner way to get these numbers: should there be a debug-tab in the 
sound-settings dialog-box, which gives the average enduser their specific 
SSID info, plus a ClickHereToCopyAlsaInfoReportToClipboard gui button? 
Let me rephrase that -- there *should* be such a thing.  Do you feel 
like implementing it?  If not, care to point me in the right direction? 
Reply via email if you wish.

Sure, what you say is true.  But this bug WAS a problem, in the past.  
And my new bug, which I will file a separate bug report concerning, 
is also a problem.  With the exact same symptoms.  My point is, the 
current sound-settings GUI does not give the average enduser any clue 
when something is *wrong*.  This can be a mismatch between what the 
pulseaudio layer believes is true versus what the alsa layer believes 
is true, or an assumption about hardware, or whatever.  Yes, yes, I 
fully agree that the best approach is to fix the bugs at their root.

Hi The_Letter_J and thanks for your detailed answer. The script looks
handy in parts, but I don't get why you're trying to play back a
configuration file...

 In my particular case, the symptoms were not exactly as described, from
 what I can garner.  

Having a look at your hardware, I notice that your bug is similar, but a
different one. In fact, just running a 3.5+ ubuntu kernel (or 3.6+
upstream kernel) fixes this bug completely, so it *must* be a different
bug. That's also why the symptoms are not exactly as described either.

In your case, you have unusual hardware: in addition to normal
headphones and stereo line out, you have 5.1 internal speakers. This
leads to unusual alsamixer names (e g Speaker Front) which we do not
match for in PulseAudio. Fixing that means that we should add those
names in PulseAudio - but let's discuss that in a new bug instead.

 p.s.  This was a dastardly difficult problem to track down.  There are a
 couple things I would suggest for David and/or some other Ubuntu
 employee with commit access, to help endusers over this hump.  First of
 all, a simple fix, pleas list the audio-chipsets in this bug, not just
 the model-names of the computers.  Clevo P180Hm w/ RealTek ALC892, in my
 particular hardware.  Most forums recommend that you search for your
 audio-chipset, not for your model-and-vendor, but this bug does not show
 up thataway currently.

Over 80% of audio bugs, including this one, are specific to the codec
*configuration*, which is usually best described with the PCI SSID
number or vendor+model. Bugs specific to a codec (Realtek ALC892) or
controller chip (Intel ICH6) are much less common.

The major exception to this rule is HDMI/Displayport audio or external
audio devices.

 Something quite brief,
 like the following, would suffice:
 
 Do not see your speakers?(with a hyperlink that takes them to this 
 bug-report)
 Do not see your microphone?  (again with the hyperlink) 
 
 These would need to be translated, and verified to fit in the available
 pixel-real-estate of the dialogbox in question, but methinks it could be
 done without violating the spirit of an LTS release.  Failing that,
 backporting David's 3.6 kernel fixes to the 3.5.0.41-series that is
 currently in use with 12.04.3 seems the only way to fix the root cause.

This backporting has already been done. Also, downloading Ubuntu LTS
today gives you an 3.8 kernel, so I think this bug is not that much of
an issue any more.

FINIS_CUT_N_PASTE_BLOCK_HERE


In my particular case, the symptoms were not exactly as described, from
what I can garner.  I installed 12.04 from LiveUSB a couple months ago,
and had no audio-playback (except in the bootloader via grub's play-
command) until I had updated to 12.04.2 -- after which I was able to
hear the drum-sound at the login-screen that appears immediately after
boot.

However, once into the desktop, I was not able to accomplish playback.
When I would open up sound-settings from the taskbar (aka gnome-
control-panel sound-nua under the hood), the only listed internal
speakers were S/PDIF output.  The laptop does have an spdif-out-jack,
but nothing was plugged into it.  Clicking on most any of the buttons in
sound-settings would cause the not-even-plugged-in spdif-out-jack to
become the default audio-sink.  So to be clear, I did not plug in
external speakers or headphones or microphones -- there were no internal
speakers in the list provided by sound-settings, from what I can tell
(ever at any time).

I believe following the instructions of step#1A over here helped --
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure --
because when I executedkillall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.config/pulse/* ;
rm -r ~/.pulse*  then counted to fifty then rebooted, I was able to
achieve mp3 playback in rhythmbox.  There were still no external
speakers listed in sound-settings, and any time I messed with sound-
settings it would change my default speakers from the (invisible to it)
internal speakers to the spdif-out-jack, necessitating a reboot.  From
the instructions in this thread, I have determined that it is possible
to perform pulseaudio -k , as opposed to rebooting, which corrects this
particular problem reliably, at least.

As previously mentioned, applying the tip from comment#32 fixes my
problem -- I now see 'built-in audio' internal speakers within sound-
settings.  I also applied the microphone related workaround, although I
do not know whether or not my box suffers from that difficulty (I do not
use an external mic at the moment).

While I was fiddling with trying to debug this vexing problem, I did
find the following indicator which reliably told me when I had lost my
default speakers, and switched over to outputting sound to the non-
existent spdif-connected-hardware.  When I first logged in, I would run
this command:

lsmod | grep -P ^snd_hda_intel

and then make a note of the UsedBy number in the third column, typically
the numeral five.  Once I lost my audio, due to fiddling with sound-
settings, I would instead see numeral six (the spdif endpoint
presumably).  Running the killall workaround would put the number back
at five where it was originally, and audio would work for a bit
thereafter.

p.s.  This was a dastardly difficult problem to track down.  There are a
couple things I would suggest for David and/or some other Ubuntu
employee with commit access, to help endusers over this hump.  First of
all, a simple fix, pleas list the audio-chipsets in this bug, not just
the model-names of the computers.

On my platform, is missing the speaker internal port and the jack port.
I tested the different workaround without success, only the HDMI output is 
available no analog device.

   SRU Justification ===
  First, sorry if this bug is a bit messy, but I think it would be even more 
messy if I spread the information across several bugs. Here's some explanation:

  The long-term fix is already in Quantal, because we backported the
  Phantom Jack support into Ubuntu's 3.5 kernel. Together with that
  comes a small PulseAudio patch, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
  audio-dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/519/debian/patches/0624
  -alsa-mixer-Add-Phantom-Jack-support.patch - the reason I want this in
  12.04 is to provide a better experience for users running the quantal
  kernel on precise, i e, the backport kernel coming with 12.04.2.

  In addition to that, while doing an SRU I could just as well add a few
  more quirks for affected machines showing up after the previous SRU,
  so that is now done in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-
  dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/520/debian/patches/0625-alsa-
  mixer-Add-a-few-more-machines-to-internal-mic-w.patch

  [Impact]
  Several laptops (see above list) are missing mostly internal mics, but 
sometimes also speakers in the Sound Settings / PulseAudio. This leads to an 
inability to control volume for these devices, and often not being able to use 
them at all.

  [Test Case]
  * Have an affected machine
  * Notice that when your mic is unplugged, the internal mic is correctly 
shown in the sound settings

  [Regression Potential]
  The quirk-style fix only affects the machines above. The long-term fix 
affects only users of a newer (quantal or later) kernel.

  

  I have an DELL Inspiron 6400. As it seems ubuntu precise beta1 thinks it
  has a digital ouput. In the audio settings it says Play sound through:
  »Digital Output (S/PDIF)«

  As you can see there → 
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins6400/en/om/specs.htm#wp1054816
  it has no S/PDIF output.

  The audio Settings doesn't let me change the mode.
  Sometime the system sets the mode to »Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output« but
  the drop-down list menu is grayed out so I can't change it.

  If I plug in and out my headphones the system changes the mode to  »Analog 
Stereo Output«
  and I can hear Sound again.

  If you need more Information please let me know.

@JoeZiehmer, thanks, it looks like it's already fixed upstream for your
machine. If you try the latest DKMS drivers (

Inverted Internal Mic is muted in alsamixer then things should work
fine.

  I have an DELL Inspiron 6400. As it seems ubuntu precise beta1 thinks it
  has a digital ouput. In the audio settings it says Play sound through:

  As you can see there →

  it has no S/PDIF output.

  The audio Settings doesn't let me change the mode.
  Sometime the system sets the mode to »Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output« but
  the drop-down list menu is grayed out so I can't change it.

  If I plug in and out my headphones the system changes the mode to  »Analog 
Stereo Output«
  and I can hear Sound again.

  If you're suffering from one of the following problems:

   1) In the sound settings dialog, when you plug your headphones into
  the designated 3.5 mm jack, there is a Headphones device correctly
  shown, but when you unplug it, there is no Speaker device shown,
  even though you have internal speakers on your computer.

   2) In the sound settings dialog, when you plug your external
  microphone into the designated 3.5 mm jack, there is a Microphone
  (or similar) device correctly shown, but when you unplug it, there is
  no Internal Mic device shown, even though you have an internal mic
  on your computer.

  If so, please try the workaround in comment #32. IF AND ONLY IF that

   SRU Justification ===
  First, sorry if this bug is a bit messy, but I think it would be even more 
messy if I spread the information across several bugs. Here's some explanation:

  The long-term fix is already in Quantal, because we backported the
  Phantom Jack support into Ubuntu's 3.5 kernel. Together with that
  comes a small PulseAudio patch, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
  audio-dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/519/debian/patches/0624
  -alsa-mixer-Add-Phantom-Jack-support.patch - the reason I want this in
  12.04 is to provide a better experience for users running the quantal
  kernel on precise, i e, the backport kernel coming with 12.04.2.

  In addition to that, while doing an SRU I could just as well add a few
  more quirks for affected machines showing up after the previous SRU,
  so that is now done in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-
  dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/520/debian/patches/0625-alsa-
  mixer-Add-a-few-more-machines-to-internal-mic-w.patch

  [Impact]
  Several laptops (see above list) are missing mostly internal mics, but 
sometimes also speakers in the Sound Settings / PulseAudio. This leads to an 
inability to control volume for these devices, and often not being able to use 
them at all.

[David Henningsson]

@Leandro,
For the new PulseAudio to improve the situation (i e, you would not have to use 
the #32 workaround), you need to use it in combination with the backport kernel 
( linux-image-generic-lts-quantal ).

@JoeZiehmer, could you attach your alsa-info (
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/AlsaInfo ) in order for me to commit a fix
upstream for future kernels?

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 946232] Re: [Meta-bug] Missing speaker and/or internal mic port

[JoeZiehmer]

Found a fix for the Acer Aspire ZG5 AOA110 models.  It involves using
the uncommented microphone lines from comment #32, installing
pavucontrol and using pavucontrol to max out the sound on the left for
the internal microphone and mute it on the right completely.  Also, it
is handy to unlock before hand as for not unlocking it; that means
several hours of believing something to be wrong, only to find out that
the sliders are locked together; unlock them.  It has to be done in
combination with the uncommented lines and if it is not used then the
bug will continue.  That's the quickest way I've found to work around
it.

Acer Aspire ZG5 AOA110 users this is my modified /usr/share/pulseaudio
/alsa-mixer/paths/analog-input-internal-mic.conf it has to be used in
combination with the pavucontrol fix.  For pavucontrol is is as easy as
sudo apt-get install pavucontrol, then using it from the command line,
unlocking the sliders for the internal microphone, muting the right
side, and sliding the left side all the way up.  As a future note in
skype make sure that skype is not allowed to configure the sound sources
which is in the skype system settings.  This includes the uncommented
line for comment #32.

** Attachment added: copy this configuration file into your own 
/usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/paths/analog-input-internal-mic.conf and run 
sudo apt-get install pavucontrol; this is meant for Acer Aspire ZG5 AOA110 
users.

[Leandro Cioletti]

The pulseaudio (1:1.1-0ubuntu15.2) update does not fixed microphone issues
in my case. 
I am running updated Ubuntu 12.04.1 - 64 bits in a Sony-Vaio VPCEB23FM.
I checked that  pulseaudio (1:1.1-0ubuntu15.2) it was installed, but the 
problem with the internal microphone
still there.  It  was not listed  in  the input tab on Sound Settings, 
for the other hand, it was (poorly) working on  skype sound tests.

I also tried to install pavucontrol but it was not possible to fix the 
microphone problem 
by changing settings with pavucontrol.  

My audio device is Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset and 
what worked for me it was the workaround pointed out on  #32.

   SRU Justification ===
  First, sorry if this bug is a bit messy, but I think it would be even more 
messy if I spread the information across several bugs. Here's some explanation:

  The long-term fix is already in Quantal, because we backported the
  Phantom Jack support into Ubuntu's 3.5 kernel. Together with that
  comes a small PulseAudio patch, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
  audio-dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/519/debian/patches/0624
  -alsa-mixer-Add-Phantom-Jack-support.patch - the reason I want this in
  12.04 is to provide a better experience for users running the quantal
  kernel on precise, i e, the backport kernel coming with 12.04.2.

  In addition to that, while doing an SRU I could just as well add a few
  more quirks for affected machines showing up after the previous SRU,
  so that is now done in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-
  dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/520/debian/patches/0625-alsa-
  mixer-Add-a-few-more-machines-to-internal-mic-w.patch

  [Impact]
  Several laptops (see above list) are missing mostly internal mics, but 
sometimes also speakers in the Sound Settings / PulseAudio. This leads to an 
inability to control volume for these devices, and often not being able to use 
them at all.

  [Test Case]
  * Have an affected machine
  * Notice that when your mic is unplugged, the internal mic is correctly 
shown in the sound settings

  [Regression Potential]
  The quirk-style fix only affects the machines above. The long-term fix 
affects only users of a newer (quantal or later) kernel.

  

  I have an DELL Inspiron 6400. As it seems ubuntu precise beta1 thinks it
  has a digital ouput. In the audio settings it says Play sound through:
  »Digital Output (S/PDIF)«

  As you can see there → 
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins6400/en/om/specs.htm#wp1054816
  it has no S/PDIF output.

  The audio Settings doesn't let me change the mode.
  Sometime the system sets the mode to »Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output« but

   SRU Justification ===
  First, sorry if this bug is a bit messy, but I think it would be even more 
messy if I spread the information across several bugs. Here's some explanation:

  The long-term fix is already in Quantal, because we backported the
  Phantom Jack support into Ubuntu's 3.5 kernel. Together with that
  comes a small PulseAudio patch, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
  audio-dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/519/debian/patches/0624
  -alsa-mixer-Add-Phantom-Jack-support.patch - the reason I want this in
  12.04 is to provide a better experience for users running the quantal
  kernel on precise, i e, the backport kernel coming with 12.04.2.

  In addition to that, while doing an SRU I could just as well add a few
  more quirks for affected machines showing up after the previous SRU,
  so that is now done in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-
  dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/520/debian/patches/0625-alsa-
  mixer-Add-a-few-more-machines-to-internal-mic-w.patch

  [Impact]
  Several laptops (see above list) are missing mostly internal mics, but 
sometimes also speakers in the Sound Settings / PulseAudio. This leads to an 
inability to control volume for these devices, and often not being able to use 
them at all.

  [Test Case]
  * Have an affected machine
  * Notice that when your mic is unplugged, the internal mic is correctly 
shown in the sound settings

  [Regression Potential]
  The quirk-style fix only affects the machines above. The long-term fix 
affects only users of a newer (quantal or later) kernel.

  

  I have an DELL Inspiron 6400. As it seems ubuntu precise beta1 thinks it
  has a digital ouput. In the audio settings it says Play sound through:
  »Digital Output (S/PDIF)«

  As you can see there → 
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins6400/en/om/specs.htm#wp1054816
  it has no S/PDIF output.

  The audio Settings doesn't let me change the mode.
  Sometime the system sets the mode to »Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output« but
  the drop-down list menu is grayed out so I can't change it.

  If I plug in and out my headphones the system changes the mode to  »Analog 
Stereo Output«
  and I can hear Sound again.

  If you need more Information please let me know.

[Timo Jyrinki]

Mitch (or others): does that mean that the package version in precise-
proposed fixed the problem? This bug needs a verification that the
proposed package fixes the issue, so that the update can be made
available for everyone.

Regarding #142 - sorry - false alarm - got chance to try this again yesterday. 
Turns out - zif cable on that old laptop got broken. 
After replacing it - both internal speakers and mic started working correctly.

Hello, I tried to get 12.4 working on dv6265us. 
Tried most stuff I could find here - nothing worked.
External (headphone jack) works (sound setting recognizes when I plugin headset
External stereo mic works too (I don't have one, but I plugged in headset - and 
I can see bars in pavumeter reacting to sound)
Internal - speaker and mics do not show signs of life whatever I do...

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 946232] Re: [Meta-bug] Missing speaker and/or internal mic port

[Bryan White]

I have recently installed 12.04.1 on an Acer Aspire One AOA 110 ZG5
(upgraded to 16 GB ssd -- wee works like a real computer now). Alas, I
can't get the edit via #32 to do the trick. I event tried the deb file
hoping I did something dumb.

In every case alasamixer comes up with mike boost 0. I push it to 100
and do the alsamixer -k trick. I get very low sound level on the
internal mic. It only shows bars when I tap the case near the mike.
Testing with Skype I hear a very very quiet version of my test message.

I read above in 133 that a ZG5 worked -- but not mine so far.

Wish I had better news. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Bryan

+Adam Conrad, I am sorry – at the moment I have no system that is
running ubuntu 12.04, so I can't test the proposed update.

  [Meta-bug] Missing speaker and/or internal mic port

  Fix Committed

Bug description:
   Read me first 

  If you're suffering from one of the following problems:

   1) In the sound settings dialog, when you plug your headphones into
  the designated 3.5 mm jack, there is a Headphones device correctly
  shown, but when you unplug it, there is no Speaker device shown,
  even though you have internal speakers on your computer.

   2) In the sound settings dialog, when you plug your external
  microphone into the designated 3.5 mm jack, there is a Microphone
  (or similar) device correctly shown, but when you unplug it, there is
  no Internal Mic device shown, even though you have an internal mic
  on your computer.

  If so, please try the workaround in comment #32. IF AND ONLY IF that
  is working for you, please attach alsa info (see
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/AlsaInfo ) to this bug, together with
  the name of your machine (e g Dell Latitude D620). I'll try to
  include it in a list of devices that we have to manually enable and
  release it as an update to 12.04.

  Thanks! - and sorry for causing the bug in the first place :-/

   SRU Justification ===
  First, sorry if this bug is a bit messy, but I think it would be even more 
messy if I spread the information across several bugs. Here's some explanation:

  The long-term fix is already in Quantal, because we backported the
  Phantom Jack support into Ubuntu's 3.5 kernel. Together with that
  comes a small PulseAudio patch, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
  audio-dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/519/debian/patches/0624
  -alsa-mixer-Add-Phantom-Jack-support.patch - the reason I want this in
  12.04 is to provide a better experience for users running the quantal
  kernel on precise, i e, the backport kernel coming with 12.04.2.

  In addition to that, while doing an SRU I could just as well add a few
  more quirks for affected machines showing up after the previous SRU,
  so that is now done in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-
  dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/520/debian/patches/0625-alsa-
  mixer-Add-a-few-more-machines-to-internal-mic-w.patch

  [Impact]
  Several laptops (see above list) are missing mostly internal mics, but 
sometimes also speakers in the Sound Settings / PulseAudio. This leads to an 
inability to control volume for these devices, and often not being able to use 
them at all.

  [Test Case]
  * Have an affected machine
  * Notice that when your mic is unplugged, the internal mic is correctly 
shown in the sound settings

  [Regression Potential]
  The quirk-style fix only affects the machines above. The long-term fix 
affects only users of a newer (quantal or later) kernel.

  

  I have an DELL Inspiron 6400. As it seems ubuntu precise beta1 thinks it
  has a digital ouput. In the audio settings it says Play sound through:
  »Digital Output (S/PDIF)«

  As you can see there → 
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins6400/en/om/specs.htm#wp1054816
  it has no S/PDIF output.

  The audio Settings doesn't let me change the mode.
  Sometime the system sets the mode to »Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output« but
  the drop-down list menu is grayed out so I can't change it.

  If I plug in and out my headphones the system changes the mode to  »Analog 
Stereo Output«
  and I can hear Sound again.

  If you need more Information please let me know.

[David Henningsson]

Okay, so for those of you who are still suffering from this bug on 12.04 with 
all updates installed, there is now another option:
1) Enable proposed as instructed in comment #138
2) Install the latest HDA driver according to 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/UpgradingAlsa/DKMS 

Reboot and test. I would be happy if at least one person - for which this is 
not yet fixed - could report back and say that the above is working. This is 
necessary so the PulseAudio fix can be released through the normal update 
channels. 
And if you're testing it and it's not working, please file an alsa-info so we 
can verify that it's really this bug you're having and nothing else.
Thanks!

[David Henningsson]

Comments #128, #129, and #131 have been added, thanks. 
@ferret-x: This concerns internal mics, not front panel mics. Likely there is 
some other problem with your front panel mic causing jack detection to fail.

  has a digital ouput. In the audio settings it says Play sound through:
  »Digital Output (S/PDIF)«
  
  As you can see there → 
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins6400/en/om/specs.htm#wp1054816
  it has no S/PDIF output.
  
  The audio Settings doesn't let me change the mode.
  Sometime the system sets the mode to »Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output« but
  the drop-down list menu is grayed out so I can't change it.
  
  If I plug in and out my headphones the system changes the mode to  »Analog 
Stereo Output«
  and I can hear Sound again.
  
  If you need more Information please let me know.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 946232] Re: [Meta-bug] Missing speaker and/or internal mic port

[David Henningsson]

** Description changed:

   Read me first 
  
  If you're suffering from one of the following problems:
  
   1) In the sound settings dialog, when you plug your headphones into the
  designated 3.5 mm jack, there is a Headphones device correctly shown,
  but when you unplug it, there is no Speaker device shown, even though
  you have internal speakers on your computer.
  
   2) In the sound settings dialog, when you plug your external microphone
  into the designated 3.5 mm jack, there is a Microphone (or similar)
  device correctly shown, but when you unplug it, there is no Internal
  Mic device shown, even though you have an internal mic on your
  computer.
  
  If so, please try the workaround in comment #32. IF AND ONLY IF that is
  working for you, please attach alsa info (see
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/AlsaInfo ) to this bug, together with the
  name of your machine (e g Dell Latitude D620). I'll try to include it
  in a list of devices that we have to manually enable and release it as
  an update to 12.04.
  
  Thanks! - and sorry for causing the bug in the first place :-/

   SRU Justification ===
  First, sorry if this bug is a bit messy, but I think it would be even more 
messy if I spread the information across several bugs. Here's some explanation:
  
  The long-term fix is already in Quantal, because we backported the
  Phantom Jack support into Ubuntu's 3.5 kernel. Together with that
  comes a small PulseAudio patch, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
  audio-dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/519/debian/patches/0624
  -alsa-mixer-Add-Phantom-Jack-support.patch - the reason I want this in
  12.04 is to provide a better experience for users running the quantal
  kernel on precise, i e, the backport kernel coming with 12.04.2.
+ 
+ In addition to that, while doing an SRU I could just as well add a few
+ more quirks for affected machines showing up after the previous SRU, so
+ that is now done in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-
+ dev/pulseaudio/ubuntu.precise/revision/520/debian/patches/0625-alsa-
+ mixer-Add-a-few-more-machines-to-internal-mic-w.patch
  
  [Impact]
  Several laptops (see above list) are missing mostly internal mics, but 
sometimes also speakers in the Sound Settings / PulseAudio. This leads to an 
inability to control volume for these devices, and often not being able to use 
them at all.
  
  [Test Case]
  * Have an affected machine
  * Notice that when your mic is unplugged, the internal mic is correctly 
shown in the sound settings
  
  [Regression Potential]
  The quirk-style fix only affects the machines above. The long-term fix 
affects only users of a newer (quantal or later) kernel.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 946232] Re: [Meta-bug] Missing speaker and/or internal mic port

[Paul Somebody]

I was missing a mic jack and instructions from the comment #32 helped me
fix it. My audio card is built-in the Intel HDA motherboard; my sincere
thanks for that.

Do you need any additional data from my system?

  no Internal Mic device shown, even though you have an internal mic
  on your computer.

  is working for you, please attach alsa info (see

  Thanks! - and sorry for causing the bug in the first place :-/

   SRU Justification ===
  [Impact]
  Several laptops (see above list) are missing mostly internal mics, but 
sometimes also speakers in the Sound Settings / PulseAudio. This leads to an 
inability to control volume for these devices, and often not being able to use 
them at all.

  [Development Fix]
  Fixed by 0621-Add-special-profiles-for-some-laptops-missing-speake.patch 
which adds quirks for the above devices, telling them to manually add 
speakers and internal mic even though we can't detect them. Fix released in
  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/1:1.1-0ubuntu16 

  (A fix for the generic problem needs to be coordinated with ALSA and
  PulseAudio upstreams but I need to start that work soon to make sure
  we have a more permanent fix in Quantal later on.)

  [Stable Fix]
  Same fix as for development release.

  [Test Case]
  * Have an affected machine
  * Notice that when your mic is unplugged, the internal mic is correctly 
shown in the sound settings

  [Regression Potential]
  The proposed quirk-style fix only affects the machines above.

  


  I have an DELL Inspiron 6400. As it seems ubuntu precise beta1 thinks it
  has a digital ouput. In the audio settings it says Play sound through:
  »Digital Output (S/PDIF)«

  As you can see there → 
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins6400/en/om/specs.htm#wp1054816
  it has no S/PDIF output.

  The audio Settings doesn't let me change the mode.
  Sometime the system sets the mode to »Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output« but
  the drop-down list menu is grayed out so I can't change it.

  If I plug in and out my headphones the system changes the mode to  »Analog 
Stereo Output«
  and I can hear Sound again.

  If you need more Information please let me know.

[Gerwin]

The workaround in comment #32 also helps to fix the recognition of the
internal speakers on a

Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook S7110.
