[Bug 1840725] Re: Microphone not working in Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS on new hp-spectre-x360-convertible-15 laptop
@hui.wang Sorry for the late response. I have now managed to make my headset mic work permanently. I had to add the following line to the file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf: options snd-hda-intel model=alc295-hp-x360 However, after doing this, a week later my speakers stopped working and I had to change some pin mappings using alsa-tools-gui: specifically I used Pin 0x14 for Internal Speaker (LFE) and Pin 0x1e for Internal Speaker. So right now, my speakers work, my headset(mic + sound) works and only my internal mic does not work. I am still unable to run the dump program in Windows. However, I can tell you that my laptop has Intel Smart Sound Technology(SST). I read somewhere that Ubuntu still does not have proper support for that although I may have misunderstood what I read. So I am not sure. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840725 Title: Microphone not working in Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS on new hp- spectre-x360-convertible-15 laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1840725/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Unfortunately, this has stopped working, ie. even when the headphone is plugged in, the mic no longer works. Would really appreciate it if anyone could help me with this problem.

Sorry, but this works only with my headset plugged in. If my headset is not plugged in, then the mic again does not work.

I managed to solve the issue by downloading the .deb file specified here - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa- driver/+bug/1523100/comments/72. After installing it and then rebooting, the mic started picking up sound. NOTE: The complete solution involves: 1. setting the internal microphone to be mapped to the pin 0x12 using alsa-tools-gui (hdajackretask) and then rebooting 2. Downloading and installing the .deb file mentioned above and then rebooting. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840725 Title: Microphone not working in Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS on new hp- spectre-x360-convertible-15 laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1840725/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Pin 0x13 does not work as well. Overriding pin 0x13 to use the Internal Mic causes an undesirable side-effect of static noise in any plugged in headphone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840725 Title: Microphone not working in Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS on new hp- spectre-x360-convertible-15 laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1840725/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I managed to finally solve this by reinstalling Windows and then installing Ubuntu 18.04.3 again. I don't know what the difference was when I installed Windows myself(as opposed to the preinstalled version) but doing this certainly solved the issue.

[Bug 1840725] [NEW] Microphone not working in Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS on new hp-spectre-x360-convertible-15 laptop
Public bug reported: Internal Microphone does not work in Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS in a new hp- spectre-x360-convertible-15 laptop. The microphone works perfectly on Windows 10 (present in Dual boot mode). Initially, Internal Microphone was not even detected but installing alsa-tools-gui and overriding pin 0x12 to the Internal Microphone fixed that issue. [Pin 0x13 does not work and causes static in a headphone if it is plugged in.] Microphone is not able to pick up any sound. I changed levels/settings in alsamixer, pavucontrol without any success: In alsamixer: Experimented with levels ranging from very low to very high for Internal Mic, Capture, etc. In pavucontrol: Set the Internal Mic as a fallback device, unlocked the channels for the mic, experimented with reducing the level for one of the channels (reduced right mic level to Silence while keeping the left mic level normal/high and vice versa). alsa-info: http://alsa-project.org/db/?f=cf6d3ccc6372f955da7d99df07afbcb31d5a6c7f arecord -l List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC285 Analog [ALC285 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 ** Affects: alsa-driver (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: alsa internal-mic ubuntu18.04.4lts ** Tags added: internal mic ** Tags added: alsa ubuntu18.04.4lts ** Tags removed: internal mic ** Tags added: internal-mic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840725 Title: Microphone not working in Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS on new hp- spectre-x360-convertible-15 laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1840725/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1839894] Re: Installing Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS alongside Windows 10 (Dual Boot) causes grub install to fail with fatal error
I have now managed to get rid of this error. I had to manually delete the directory "/EFI/ubuntu". However, I had to delete the folder both from windows and ubuntu (booted using live usb). I find that weird since both OSs refer to the same EFI partition and hence the ubuntu folder once deleted from windows should not have been visisble from ubuntu. Unfortunately, I am still unable to boot ubuntu after I restart once the installation completes successfully. I tried running boot-repair, tried mounting the linux partition and the EFI partition in a live usb session and reinstalled grub in a chroot environment, I even booted into windows and set the bootmgr path to /EFI/ubuntu/gubx64.efi. Nothing worked. Something weird that I noticed is: after I install linux, if I run a terminal and mount the EFI partition, I can see the /EFI/ubuntu folder with all the files (mmx, grubx, shimx). But as soon as I restart and go to the boot options, I don't see any entry for ubuntu. When I select "Boot from EFI file", I am unable to see any ubuntu directory in the EFI dir which is weird since just moments ago I saw its existence from the live USB. Naturally, I am unable to boot into Ubuntu and can only boot into Windows. I tried every possible solution here (https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295) and nothing seems to be working. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1839894 Title: Installing Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS alongside Windows 10 (Dual Boot) causes grub install to fail with fatal error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1839894/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1839894] Re: Installing Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS alongside Windows 10 (Dual Boot) causes grub install to fail with fatal error
Thanks for your reply. I had already disabled Fastboot in Windows. I ran `chkdsk /f /r` from Windows on the EFI partition and then tried installing Ubuntu. The installation succeeded but I was not able to boot into Ubuntu. I used bcdedit to add grubx64.efi to the boot path but even that did not help. To make matters worse, when I tried reinstalling Ubuntu, I started getting the same error again - "grub-install failed...this is a fatal error". Unfortunately this time, even `chkdsk` from Windows failed to resolve the issue. So I used `Try Ubuntu` option from the live usb stick and ran the commands you suggested for my EFI partition: sudo fsck /dev/nvme0n1p1 sudo badblocks /dev/nvme0n1p1 -v There were no errors reported. I have spent over a day now on this and am really not sure what is wrong here. I would really appreciate some help/insight. Let me know if any more info is required.
