Yes, it is a 4-pin headset jack. I can use both the headphone and the mic simultaneously.
Adding the line options snd-hda-intel model=laptop-dmic to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf solved the issue for me, at least partly. I now only have 1 microphone, but it auto-switches between the external one and the internal one depending on whether I have an external mic plugged in or not. It would be nice to be able to use the internal mic sometimes even when the external one is connected, but it's also quite acceptable to have it this way. So, do you still need me to try the hda-jack-retask thingy? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/950490 Title: External microphone does not work on Zenbook UX31 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/950490/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
