According to what BIOS says, you have three mics, and the current HDA driver only enables two of them. Perhaps this can be tweakable by user_pin_configs?
Can you please try the following: 1) Make sure you have the latest drivers installed, according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/InstallingLinuxAlsaDriverModules 2) Execute the following commands: sudo echo 0x0e 0x411111f0 > /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/user_pin_configs sudo echo 1 > /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/reconfig Try both mics and see if they're working. ** Changed in: alsa-driver (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- Microphone doesn't work on Dell Precision M6500 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/519066 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
