Package: pulseaudio Version: 4.0-6 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
On a MacBook Pro 9.2 the speakers and internal microphone work, however the following power-management issue exists with the internal microphone: After suspend or simply after a long inactive periods without a suspend the microphone does not work in any program (e.g. arecord, flash plugin). The speaker works. In the sound control center provided with gnome the microphone is still present, however the sound-level bar does not move when I make noise. After moving the recording volume slider the sound-level bar starts responding to noise again and the microphone is usable again. Pulseaudio should not require an explicit (and somewhat "magical") user action for the microphone to work. It should be sufficient that a recording program is running. Tangential remarks about results from powertop: When the microphone is not working `powertop` shows the following: > Good - Runtime PM for PCI Device Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series > Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller After I move the recording volume slider and the microphone starts working again `powertop` shows: > Bad - Runtime PM for PCI Device Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series > Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller After I manually toggle it from within `powertop` back to `Good` the microphone *continues* to work *fine*. The reverse: setting it manually to `Bad` when the microphone is not working, does not cause the microphone to start working.
