Facing the same problem with an HP Spectre X360, I tested several distributions and several different kernel versions.
I also followed several guides explaining how the problem could be solved, but none worked for me. What I find curious is that in Ubuntu 19.10 and 20.04 in live mode the microphone works perfectly (both internal and the headset). I copied the contents of the alsa-base.conf file from live and overwrote that of the distribution, but it also didn't work. Tested with kernel: 5.0x, 5.3.x, 5.4.x, 5.5x (family 4.x bring other problems for my hardware) I was also able to use an external microphone using a USB adapter. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840725 Title: Microphone not working in Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS on new hp- spectre-x360-convertible-15 laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1840725/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
