The same problem on HP Compaq 6720s, internal microphone not working, external microphone via line-in works just fine. All volume controls maxed out, etc... I read tons of posts on net related to this issue.
My variation of the bug is that every time when I enable the Capture control on Recording tab (small microphone icon) in gnome volume control, it is disabled when I open volume control again. So I just can't enable it because it gets auto disabled. My sound card: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) AD198x It's very strange that so MANY people struggle with this nasty bug and still there is no fix for that. -- internal mic capture very low volume when routed through pulseaudio https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275998 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
