Hey, I had the same problem, also tried to flash the new firmware, but it didn't affect the quality.
So I have adjusted alsamixer and it worked for me. Actually, I have done it try-and-error and I don't know much about the details, but maybe this helps someone, so I'll show you what I have done: - start terminal - start alsamixer by tiping "alsamixer" in the terminal - chose "Capture" by clicking F4 - click the right arrow key (roughly twomillion times^^) until I arrive to "RX1 Digital" - the RX1 until 7 Digitals are the gains that I changed, because they affect the quality. What I have done is, that I reduced the gain for RX2 until RX7, all down to around 55 (reducing is simply done by pressing the "down arrow"). The gain for RX1 must not be adjusted that low, because it somehow it affects the incoming call volume, and when I reduced this value, it was hard for me to understand the people. - That did the trick for me, I haven't done some very specific fine tuning, maybe I will do it later and tell you the results :). But since this solution works very well for me, maybe I'll leave it that way... I hope this will be helpful for someone; if anyone has any feedback or improvements, please share! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318360 Title: Poor microphone quality (mako) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1318360/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
