** Description changed: - For machines requiring snd_hda_intel (Lenovo Thinkpad X60, R61i, Dell - Vostro...) to get the sound working, the microphone sound capture is - jerky and choppy or does not work at all. The built-in internal mic does - not work at all. - On some machine reloading the module fixes the problem. + On a Lenovo Thinkpad X60, the microphone sound captured within Ekiga is + jerky and choppy, unless we reload sound module snd-hda-intel. - Step to reproduce : + Step to reproduce : Normally boot the laptop, Launch ekiga and go through the assistant, and do the audio test --> ekiga records mic input and plays it with a 3-second delay --> the sound should be *choppy* Quit ekiga and quit all applications using sound (including gnome-mixer) $ sudo modprobe -r snd-hda-intel $ sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel Launch ekiga and go through the assistant, and do the audio test --> the sound should be *clear* - On other machines adding some kernel parameters to snd-hda-intel solves - the problem partially. (e.g. gets either the internal or the external - mic working). - - On some other machines no workaround is found yet, sond input is - impossible! - - See the duplicates of this bug to see specific cases. But it seems that - this module which is the driver for widely adopted sound chips has some - major problems related to sound input. Sound recording/VoIP just doesn't - work. - Conditions : - Brand new edgy/feisty/hardy installation. + Brand new edgy installation. ESD disabled.
