I don't have ubuntu hirsute version so won't be able to test for it. Maybe someone else can. Also, I wanted to know if the same packages will be there for official release? If yes can I keep using these proposed packages and maybe when it releases officially only the apt cache version will point to focal- updates instead of focal-purposed for same packages. If now I will downgrade all those in aplitude-upgrade screenshot and upgrade officially later.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1930188] Re: Acer Aspire 5 sound driver issues
Hello, I tested both of the committed fixes from focal-proposed packages. Here are my upgrade screenshots/logs and results alsa-ucm-conf: Volume is directly tied to mic boost now. I did some test and found out the mic boost applied to specific volume ranges using pavucontrol. Hope these ranges are as intended. I couldn't get 100% mic volume and 20db boost like windows but for 20db boost 69% to 99% volume level is possible so fine for me. 0% to 46% -> 0 db boost 47% to 68% -> 10 db boost 69% to 99% -> 20 db boost 100% above -> 30 db boost pulseaudio: Volume is seperated for speakers and headphones now. Like if I keep speaker volume to 75%, plug in headphones and keep it at 35% then plug headphones out speakers 75% volume is restored and vice versa. I noticed sometimes the headphones volume drops by 1% than it was before in alsamixer but guess it's due to rounding off or something not really an issue just for information. ** Attachment added: "amplitude-upgrade.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1930188/+attachment/5531828/+files/amplitude-upgrade.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1930188 Title: Acer Aspire 5 sound driver issues Status in alsa-ucm-conf package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in alsa-ucm-conf source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Focal: Fix Released Status in pulseaudio source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in alsa-ucm-conf source package in Hirsute: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Hirsute: Fix Released Status in pulseaudio source package in Hirsute: Fix Committed Status in alsa-ucm-conf source package in Impish: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Impish: Fix Released Status in pulseaudio source package in Impish: Fix Released Bug description: SRU Justification for alsa-ucm-conf: [Impact] On the machines with the sof audio driver, users could adjust the input volume from UI, but this only adjusts the "Capture Volume", the "Mic Boost" can't be changed, if "Mic Boost" is 0, even we adjust the "Capture Volume" to max, the recorded volume is still very low.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1930188] Re: Acer Aspire 5 sound driver issues
Hello, regarding the latest SRU Justification for alsa-ucm-conf Isn't it normal to have separate microphone volume and mic boost. Currently I have mic volume on 100% and mic boost on 20db gain. It's just like windows where microphone volume and mic boost is separate. We just don't have UI for it need to change using alsamixer. With latest ubuntu official kernel mic boost has 4 levels just like windows now 0db, 10db, 20db, 30db. Anything above 20db causes too much noise. So, if mic volume and boost was to be tied so that both changes it would be difficult to achieve what I am using right now. Maybe would be better to provide a UI to change mic boost independently. Just a suggestion, let me know if I got the change wrong.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1916851] Re: module-echo-cancel fails on first run
Hello, I got similar issue, I am using this in default.pa ### Enable echo/noise cancellation load-module module-echo-cancel aec_method=webrtc aec_args="analog_gain_control=0 digital_gain_control=1" source_name=echocancelledsource set-default-source echocancelledsource It works when I use pulseaudio -k in terminal, echo cancelled sink/sources are shown and the echo cancelled source is default. This also retains on log off and re login but after a restart it does not apply at all. For now my solution is to add a entry to gnome startup application preferences as "pulseaudio echo cancel" and use this in command "pulseaudio -k". I tried using "sleep 5/10/30 && pulseaudio -k" as command but no matter what sleep seconds it didn't load module at all, only using the command without sleep works. This method also retains volume/state of echo cancelled sources so it's fine for now hope it gets fixed soon officially. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1916851 Title: module-echo-cancel fails on first run Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have the following in `.config/pulse/default.pa`: ``` .include /etc/pulse/default.pa load-module module-echo-cancel aec_method=webrtc aec_args="analog_gain_control=0 digital_gain_control=1" ``` After a reboot, there is no echo cancelled device.
