This also occurs with the Eee 1005ha, im pretty sure it also has an Intel HDA for the audio as well.
Internal mic works with sound recorder, although it is very noisy and picks up alot of background noise instead of voices. The problem is solved by using ALSA, but it causes problems, like for example on my eee 1005, it creates a static sound which does not go away unless you mute the output. In skype it can be solved by using the command < /bin/sh -c "PULSE_SERVER=127.0.0.1 skype" >, but sometimes causes the static sound to appear. This bug is LONG over due in being fixed, and is in my honest opinion, a HUGE bug, since programs like skype do not work. Many people rely on skype or other programs to call overseas, as well as family and friends, and since audio does not work, it is a major drawback for ubuntu. A non-working internal mic will make ALOT of laptop users not use ubuntu. This MUST be fixed for lucid, especially since its an LTS release - _everything_ should be expected to work, other than relatively new systems. -- Internal microphone does not work with certain programs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/447259 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
