Hi! I just want to chime in and document my workaround to use a generic
UVC webcam with a built-in mic.
I attach a screenshot showing both a "multichannel input" and
"microphone" once the UVC webcam is attached.
Notice the picklist still does not contain an item for the system built-
in [analog]
extra info:
Audacity is able to access the microphone as "sysdefault: Mic:0" using
ALSA (see screenshot)
yet the default mic is not accessible in the Sound system setting in the Input
tab.
** Attachment added: "Audacity - sysdefault: Mic:0.png"

ok - good news - I was able to repair my 32-bit 18.04.4 install on the
*same* exact hardware and confirmed I am able to see (1) Microphone and
(2) bars moving (see screenshot)
NOTE: my Unity desktop is corrupt on my 32-bit instance so what you are
seeing is Volume Control from XCFE.
again, I want
