Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1876555] Re: Apps cannot retrieve internal mic input
Wang: I've never had to use it since I bought it, so I don't know if it could work from the start. It is only because of Covid-19 and having to use Zoom and Skype for our group activities that the necessity has come up. I think it is s software problem, not hardware because on Settings > Sound > Input I can unmute (On) the mic and see the sound bars showing the level. The Sound Recorder app also records clips and plays them back. I cannot get the sound input settings to work in Skype and Zoom. on that, although the level meters work, Skype test calls and Zoom recipients can't hear me. There are two issues: 1. The Ubuntu Settings > Sound > Input settings do not reflect the actual state of the sound input, and even if the mic is unmuted (On), this setting is lost on shut down or sleep regardless of what the mic setting is. 2. Apps cannot access the mic input when it is active. My attempts to load the snd_cs46xx kernel module and to add the below options to the end of alsa-base.conf were 'solutions' found on the internet: options snd-hda-intel model=dell-vostro-2520 options snd-hda-intel dmic_detect=0 The Cirrus Logic CS4213 codec is used in a number of older Dell models.
