I just installed the alsa 1.0.20 driver on Jaunty and I now have a digital microphone control again that actually works (at least in gnome- sound-recorder - haven't tried Skype yet). Admittedly, I did it on the weekly vanilla kernel build 2.6.30.rc3, but presumably it works with the stock standard Jaunty kernel.
In case anyone else wants to try it, there are sample bash scripts to download and build the drivers, eg at http://www.antonywilliams.com/2007/10/bash-script-to-automate-compiling- alsa.html, but note that you need to change it to get alsa 1.0.20 as the example script is for 1.0.15. If you scroll down someone has posted a mod that just downloads the latest alsa. Also, you need to change the target folder for Jaunty's snd-hda-intel.ko in the alsa_2 script because the sample script is for Gutsy. Instead, it should be: cp -v /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko -- 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 ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
