** Description changed: ==== Read me first ==== If you're suffering from one of the following problems: 1) In the sound settings dialog, when you plug your headphones into the designated 3.5 mm jack, there is a "Headphones" device correctly shown, but when you unplug it, there is no "Speaker" device shown, even though you have internal speakers on your computer. 2) In the sound settings dialog, when you plug your external microphone into the designated 3.5 mm jack, there is a "Microphone" (or similar) device correctly shown, but when you unplug it, there is no "Internal Mic" device shown, even though you have an internal mic on your computer. If so, please try the workaround in comment #32. IF AND ONLY IF that is working for you, please attach alsa info (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/AlsaInfo ) to this bug, together with the name of your machine (e g "Dell Latitude D620"). I'll try to include it in a list of devices that we have to manually enable and release it as an update to 12.04. Thanks! - and sorry for causing the bug in the first place :-/ // David Henningsson ==== The following machines are known to be affected (no more alsa-info needed) : # Acer AOA150 # Acer Aspire 1810TZ # Acer AOD260, AO532h # Dell MXC051 # Dell Inspiron 6400 and E1505 # Dell Latitude D620 # Dell Latitude D820 # Dell Latitude D520 # Dell Latitude D420 # Dell Inspiron 1525 # Dell Inspiron 1011 # Dell XPS 14 (L401X) # Dell XPS 15 (L501X) # Dell XPS 15 (L502X) # Asus 904HA (1000H) # Asus T101MT # Sony Vaio VGN-SR21M # Sony Vaio VPC-W115XG # Fujitsu Lifebook A530 # Toshiba A200 # MSI X360 # Lenovo 3000 Y410 ==== + + ==== SRU Justification === + [Impact] + Several laptops (see above list) are missing mostly internal mics, but sometimes also speakers in the Sound Settings / PulseAudio. This leads to an inability to control volume for these devices, and often not being able to use them at all. + + [Development Fix] + Fixed by 0621-Add-special-profiles-for-some-laptops-missing-speake.patch which adds quirks for the above devices, telling them to manually add "speakers" and "internal mic" even though we can't detect them. Fix released in + https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/1:1.1-0ubuntu16 + + (A fix for the generic problem needs to be coordinated with ALSA and + PulseAudio upstreams but I need to start that work soon to make sure we + have a more permanent fix in Quantal later on.) + + [Stable Fix] + Same fix as for development release. + + [Test Case] + * Have an affected machine + * Notice that when your mic is unplugged, the "internal mic" is correctly shown in the sound settings + + [Regression Potential] + The proposed quirk-style fix only affects the machines above. + + ==== + I have an DELL Inspiron 6400. As it seems ubuntu precise beta1 thinks it has a digital ouput. In the audio settings it says Play sound through: »Digital Output (S/PDIF)« As you can see there → http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins6400/en/om/specs.htm#wp1054816 it has no S/PDIF output. The audio Settings doesn't let me change the mode. Sometime the system sets the mode to »Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output« but the drop-down list menu is grayed out so I can't change it. If I plug in and out my headphones the system changes the mode to »Analog Stereo Output« and I can hear Sound again. If you need more Information please let me know.
