After 12.04 audio playback works perfectly. But no sound recording at all.

Another addition, I don't know if the original hiss bug is related to the one w've been discussing in recent comments but: While the hiss thing and sound being disabled issue was fixed, there a remaining symptom or call it regression: If you're using 12.04, you might notice that when you login the sound is at very low volume even thought the volume bar is at a high position. To reproduce the issue: - Logout - Login back - Open TOTEM - open a video or audio file -- Do you hear any sound? Yes, but very low. Workaround it: - Type: Function key + Mute key - Type Function key + Volume UP / Volume Down. -- Recovred? Yes, the volume is back to its correct value. I must point to the fact that this applies to a laptop. I don't know the bug is reproduceable in desktop machine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897427 Title: [Advent 4211, Realtek ALC1200, Green Headphone Out, Rear] Playback problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/897427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm the workaround from mediterran81. After plugging in the external speaker, the sound is mute. When i mute und unmute the sound via the symbol in the top bar, the external speakers work as expected and the internal speaker is muted (as it should be). At one time i also had to modify the volume (just using the slider a little down and up) to make this workaround work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897427 Title: [Advent 4211, Realtek ALC1200, Green Headphone Out, Rear] Playback problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/897427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have the same issue on a DELL XPS 15 L502X. When I plug external speakers or headphones, there's no sound. Modifying the Alsa config results in problems so the present workaround for me is this one: - Just right after I plug the external speakers, I hit (Mute then Unmute) : This enables sound back. Actually Alsa config should be modified in a manner that right after the external speakers jack is plugged a mute+unmute function is executed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897427 Title: [Advent 4211, Realtek ALC1200, Green Headphone Out, Rear] Playback problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/897427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Zach and Robert are correct, the fix i posted applies only to the headphone. I now have no functional microphone at all. I so look forward to the day when linux is actually functional. Currently for me no Skype and no Spotify and Shotwell only reads 50% of my pictures. Ho hum. I have made my decision, my next lap top is Windows 7. I am sorry because I prefer Ubuntu but other than browsing and email i just can not get stuff to work, and no bug i have ever posted gets fixed. I noet there is no decision on this bug. good luck Zach and Robert. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897427 Title: [Advent 4211, Realtek ALC1200, Green Headphone Out, Rear] Playback problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/897427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 897427] Re: [Advent 4211, Realtek ALC1200, Green Headphone Out, Rear] Playback problem
With targa-2ch-dig the headphone jack mutes correctly but it is still not possible to use an external mic. The mic on the netbook chassis is the Front Microphone and this works. Meanwhile I thought I would investigate why alsa-base.conf was missing and it turns out I DIDN'T HAVE ALSA-BASE INSTALLED. This suggests a dependency bug somewhere as I have been using pulseaudio and jackd for months without any problems apart from with the headphone jack and external mic problems we have been talking about. After I installed alsa-base, the jack sensing works correctly WITHOUT adding the line to force the model. So I'm now interested to know why alex has a problem. Meanwhile it doesn't matter if I use the packaged version of alsa- base.conf, or targa-dig, or targa-2ch-dig [I just tried], I can't use the mic jack. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897427 Title: [Advent 4211, Realtek ALC1200, Green Headphone Out, Rear] Playback problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/897427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 897427] Re: [Advent 4211, Realtek ALC1200, Green Headphone Out, Rear] Playback problem
So simple example: Skype through a headset. That needs the headphone jack switch AND the external microphone to work so I'll try and figure out how to get both working. To be absolutely clear: I don't HAVE an alsa-base.conf to begin with - is that the expected behaviour? I'll add the file so the snd_hda_intel module picks up the config - if that fixes my headphones I'll mark my bug 909348 as a dupe of this one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897427 Title: [Advent 4211, Realtek ALC1200, Green Headphone Out, Rear] Playback problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/897427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 897427] Re: [Advent 4211, Realtek ALC1200, Green Headphone Out, Rear] Playback problem
OK tried the targa-dig model. Now if I plug the headphone jack in and then mute/unmute it comes to life, which is better than having to go into kcm, but still not ideal! The Advent 4211 has an ALC888 chipset. I am sure there is a CORRECT model we should be using, guess I'll dig through the documentation some more. There don't seem to be many with only TWO jacks listed in /Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt. targa model gives similar results except the level is set incorrectly, so everything is too quiet both through speakers and through headphones.

[Bug 897427] Re: [Advent 4211, Realtek ALC1200, Green Headphone Out, Rear] Playback problem
Just noticed that while adding options snd-hda-intel model=targa-dig to alsa-base.conf solves the speaker problem, it creates another problem: plugging in an external microphone is no longer possible. That means while the internal mic (integrated in the lid) still works, the external mic can record nothing. So i had to remove the model=targa-dig line from my alsa-base.conf and disabled the Auto-Mut-Switch in alsamixer. Now my external Speakers and the internal Speakers work at the same Time. This means also i can use no Headphones (e.g. in a Train) because the internal Speakers are always on. I spent so much Time with this and must stop here. I hope someone provides a solution where external Speakers and external Microphone work both as expected.

Im on a Medion E1210 Netbook. Sound card reports also as Realtek ALC1200. After Update to Oneiric Sound was completly muted when Headphone or external Speakers where plugged in. With unplugged Headphones/ext. Speakers sound was working correctly with built in speakers. With all Versions before Oneiric (lucid to natty) everything worked fine.
