@slamdunk: Please try the following approach: 1. open pulseaudio sound preferences (I use the gnome applet) 2. open the "input" tab 3. in a terminal start "alsamixer -V=all" 4. move to "Input Source [Mic]" with "cursor right" and switch to "Digital" with "cursor up" or "cursor down" 5. check whether your mic works using the volume meter in the pulseaudio sound preferences
I have to do this each time I boot my Dell laptop since I didn't yet find a better solution. Obviously pulseaudio doesn't offer to select the digital mic as input source although alsa knows it. Any idea whether it is a software bug or which config file has to be changed? -- dell xps m1330 regression, integrated digital microphone no longer working [karmic koala] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453966 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
