Public bug reported: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 7 14:50:42 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 11.10 Release: 11.10 Codename: oneiric 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02) HDA Intel ALC269
By default applications cannot listen to audio input from the laptop mic. There are two workarounds for this. Either) Uninstall pulseaudio Or) Open Pavucontrol and set the right mic to a lower volume than that of the left mic. In my case left is on 100% and right on 95% This exact same issue is experienced by many other users with the same hardware.

This bug has been around for a long while now in many Ubuntu releases. ** Affects: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - Dual mic system does not work unless both mics have a different volume + Dual mic system does not work unless both mics have a different volume ALC269 Intel HDA -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/894402 Title: Dual mic system does not work unless both mics have a different volume ALC269 Intel HDA To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/894402/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
