Ubuntu 15.04 (r309) Mako Can confirm that this issue remains as described by wayne in comment 22.
In speaker phone mode during a call, the caller has trouble hearing me. In regular phone call, the caller can hear TOO well. i.e. Mic amplification is too high in normal mode (causing distortion when held close to mouth), and too low in speaker phone mode when held far away from mouth. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318360 Title: Poor microphone quality (mako) Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After months of complaints from people talking to me on the phone (mako ubuntu touch), I finally got around to use multiROM to dual boot Ubuntu Touch and Android. Several people can confirm that there is a noticable difference in terms of sound/microphone quality between Android and UT in phone calls. With UT, my voice gets distorted to an extent that person at the other end have real difficulties to hear what I am saying, while with Android call quality is much better with no distortion. I have had a suspicion for a long time that this might be a software and not a hardware issue. After trying Android and Ubuntu on the same hardware I believe this suspicion is proved correct. This issue has persisted in all the builds I have tried since at least the beginning of the year, but probably longer. I am now at r17 of Utopic.
