[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1874698] Re: [OMEN by HP Laptop 15-dh0xxx, Realtek ALC285, Black Mic, Left] Recording problem
I own a late 2019 Computer Upgrade King Hewlett Packard Omen 15t and I am running System76's Pop_OS! 20.04.0 64 bit LTS GNU/Linux. Looking at this bug report, it looks like I am affected. I see that the latest information is such that a fix was committed, but it has not been released yet. Is it possible that a future and updated Linux kernel version will be released to include the necessary firmware, device drivers and updated software package versions to fix the Realtek ALC285 sound card and digital microphones so that they will work normally? Which specific Linux kernel version and linux-firmware version is going to be needed for the fix? System76 chooses to use systemd-boot rather than GRUB2 used by Ubuntu. I did research and I typed in sudo kernelstub -a snd_hda_intel.dmic_detect=0 splash to be added to my Linux kernel version 5.4.0-7634-generic AMD64 and it selected the snd_hd_intel driver; the sound card is detected and audio is output through the laptop's stereo speakers, but I realize that I have an Intel 9th generation Core-i9 9880H mobile CPU which uses the Intel Cannon Lake PCH cAVS for Audio-1 according to inxi -F results. Based on research, I need the Sound Open Firmware, topology, updated software package versions for ALSA and perhaps Pulse Audio and I should be using a newer Linux kernel version above the current one that I am already using now. According to my /etc/pulse/default.pa configuration file, I added these two lines: load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,0 channels=2 load-module module-alsa-source device=hw:0,6 channels=2 According to my /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf configuration file, I added this line: options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=laptop-dmic People should know that I also have a nVidia Geforce RTX 2080 Max-Q with 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM mobile GPU on this HP Omen 15t gaming notebook PC. How do I determine if I have a non-Intel HDMI output out of curiosity? Can I safely assume that both my MiniDisplay Port 1.4 and HDMI 2.0b are directed connected to my nVidia mobile GPU? Please let me know if it is important for me to backup my HDMI. The big question that I have to ask this community is whether it is worth the effort and time for me to fix this on my own by downloading the correct version of the Sound Open Firmware, topology, ALSA-ucm file and a custom and newer Linux kernel version and learning how to install it safely using systemd-boot on my own or should I let Canonical, Ltd. and then System76 provide me with software updates in the future to fix my sound card and digital microphone on my HP Omen 15t PC? If the latter route is recommended for safety reasons since it seems obvious that I am asking questions from the perspective of a new end user, then what specific software packages and versions should I keep my eyes on via future software updates to get an early idea that my sound card and digital microphone will be fixed in the future? What else do I need to know?

Hugh Chao: Please keep us informed with your results. I assume that I am correct to remove the specific hacks to my alsa-base.conf and default.pa configuration files while patiently waiting for Linux kernel 5.4.0.38-41 AMD64 and I may need to download and install alsa-ucm-conf 1.2.2-1 as well?

Upon closer investigation, Pop Shop is System76's replacement for their software center and there is an unchecked option to choose to download and install software packages from Ubuntu-Proposed (Focal Fossa). So, I expect that I may need to click this button, update Pop Shop and hope that the newer Linux kernel version will become available as a software update in the near future, correct?

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1874698] Re: [OMEN by HP Laptop 15-dh0xxx, Realtek ALC285, Black Mic, Left] Recording problem
I installed Pop_OS! 20.04.0 64 bit LTS GNU/Linux bare metal on my late 2019 CUK HP Omen 15t gaming notebook PC this past Monday, June 8th, 2020 at around 2:15 PM EDT. For the past several days, I have done my best to do in depth research into the root cause of why my sound card and microphone do not work properly and I learned a lot of technical information. I also spent a lot of time to download, install, configure and optimize my software packages and products and I discovered that some of the third-party software vendors only officially support Ubuntu up to version 18.04.x 64 bit LTS, but they are in the process of patching and updating their software products for 20.04.0 64 bit LTS at this time. In short, my choice of Pop_OS! in of itself may preclude me from receiving official technical support in order to troubleshoot some third-party software products that I am currently using and with which I have relatively minor bugs with some apps. The more serious issue with Pop_OS! is getting the Sound Open Firmware, device drivers and topology along with updated versions of the required software packages an newer Linux kernel version not to mention hardware specific hacks to configure the sound card and digital microphone are not yet available for Ubuntu 20.04.0 64 bit LTS and my HP Omen 15t PC; future step by step documentation that provides a working solution will almost certainly require Ubuntu 20.04.x 64 bit LTS especially with regards to the standard GRUB2 boot loader. At this point, I decided to mark this Ubuntu Launchpad bug as it does not affect me to stop receiving notifications in the future. I have decided to use my Easeus To-Do Home software product which I paid for and licensed on my late 2019 CUK HP Omen 15t gaming notebook PC and to plug in my Transcend StoreJet H3 2 TB portable hard disk drive to restore my disk image and return back to a Microsoft Windows 10 64 bit Pro edition version 1909 as of May 2020 Windows Update environment if for no other reason that 100% compatibility and to receive official help and technical support from Computer Upgrade King for the next three years. This was an eye opening learning experience that yielded a valuable lesson and one of my former friends told me not to fuck with my Windows desktop operating system when I received my product a few weeks ago. His common sense advice should have been heeded by myself and I am going to take it and restore Windows on my HP PC this weekend. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to alsa-ucm-conf in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874698 Title: [OMEN by HP Laptop 15-dh0xxx, Realtek ALC285, Black Mic, Left] Recording problem Status in HWE Next: New Status in OEM Priority Project: Fix Committed Status in alsa-ucm-conf package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in alsa-ucm-conf source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in alsa-ucm-conf source package in Groovy: Fix Released Bug description: This is for alsa-ucm-conf: The patches are already in the mainline alsa-ucm-conf, so only sent the SRU for focal [Impact] On the machines without Intel HDMI, the sof driver will fail to initialize.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1136110] Re: USB Audio Codec choppy playback
So, I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 64 bit and I have this: wellywu@System76:/etc/pulse$ uname -r 3.8.0-27-generic When is this going to be fixed? I have a HRT MicroStreamer asynchronous USB DAC and headphone amplifier. I downloaded and installed Clementine Development from the PPA and I set ALSA sink to hw:1,0 output and I get crackling sounds when playing 88.2 and 96 kHz high resolution FLAC files. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1136110 Title: USB Audio Codec choppy playback Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: 1) The release of Ubuntu using Ubuntu 12.10 AMD64.

It's said that such a DAC hosts the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called "Synchronous USB DAC", uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this bug. When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling noises, destroying everything the DAC plays. Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the situation when buffer size is not correctly set. I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous. Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.
