My computer is the Thinkpad Edge 13. The information about my system can be found here: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=caa4f278baae73257cec7816c72eedcbe977468e The microphone works with really low volume. Setting the volume at max makes the noise unbearable. I have tried the inverted internal microphone fix shown here: http://voices.canonical.com/david.henningsson/2012/05/22/three-audio- bugs-in-12-04/ and the audio ppa https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/InstallingLinuxAlsaDriverModules without success. I have also tried and in the Windows included the sound works as expected without that much noise. The noise is "like a hoover". I'm available to any testing or to add further information.
