Public bug reported:
Acer Aspire One D260-A. Sound output and control via pulseaudio is fine
and has been with 11.04, 11.10 and now 12.04. However, sound input from
the internal mic has been mostly broken.
The internal mic was detected and the sound recorder application worked
perfectly with 12.04 BETA 2 booted from a usb stick. I expected it would
be fine when I upgraded to the new release, but it isn't.
When I boot my system (upgraded from 11.10 to 12.04 official releases),
the mic doesn't record anything except low level static. Alsamixer shows
it is at 100% gain and not muted. Pulseaudio control doesn't show ANY
input device. Not surprisingly the volume control slider is at zero and
the mute checkbox is unchecked, but both are greyede-out.
Wierdly, when I boot the 12.04 desktop official release from a usb stick
sound recorder actually records my voice, but very faintly even at full
gain. Pulseaudio control STILL shows no input devices and the volume
control is greyed, set to zero and not muted.
Unfortunately I didn't keep the beta 2 system, so I can't look for
differences - did any of the latest packages in the beta get forgotten
when the release was cut (I don't see how that would be possible, but I
have to ask).
