Ubuntu Multimedia :: Built-in Laptop Mic Does Not Pick Up Any Sound
Jan 16, 2010
I installed Skype onto my Toshiba Satellite running Karmic last December, and gave it a very successful test run. However, while video still works, and I can receive audio, the microphone does not pick up any sound. I don't think it could be a hardware issue- it worked so recently and my machine has experienced no tramatic events since, but I can't pick up any sound using Sound Recorder either. How could I go about diagnosing and fixing this problem?

So Im having problems getting sound to work on my new machine. I dont know if its a hardware problem or if its something else. Im kinda a linux amateur but have been using it for a couple years off and on. Im running
Ubuntu 10.10
Biostar N68s+ mother board
AMD athlon 64 x2 dual core processor
my video card is a MSI N8400GS.
Im using a DVI to HDMI cord and running it into my flat screen TV for my monitor. I normally just used a analog splitter from the back of the pc to the tv for my sound to work. Never had a problem before I had this machine put together.

I have already installed my sound card.
aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC272X Analog [ALC272X Analog]
Subdevices: 0/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
Followed through this:
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
And added
options snd-hda-intel model=auto position_fix=0
After all of this, the built-in mic still doesn't work. I'm using a Aspire One 532h-2588 laptop. I need to get this working so I can use VOIP. I'm using ZoIper.

i've not been able to find a solution to my issue. I have a Gateway Profile 5 All-in-One with built in speakers. Just finished a fresh install to 9.10 and all updates. I can hear sound through the headphone jack via headphones, but the internal speakers will not play anything. I've checked the volume controls, alsamixer, etc.

Until recently, when connected my laptop to the stereo via audio out, i had sound coming only from the stereo. I don't know why and when exactly this happened, but now when the stereo is connected, i get sound from the laptop speakers and stereo speakers simultaneously.Is this a bug? I'd like to mute only my laptop speakers but haven't figured out how. I've tried every setting in "sound" or "audio" or whatever it's called in english, but to no avail.Any ideas how to turn off the laptop speakers?

I've been struggling to get my sound to work properly in my HP dv7 laptop in Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit.
If I follow the instructions here [URL] then I can get my microphone to work.
My speakers worked fine right out of the box, but the headphone jack does not. When I follow the instructions here [URL] and install the alsa backports then my headphone jack works properly, but when I shutdown my computer I get a loud crackling/popping sound. Uninstalling the alsa backports stops the crackling, but then the headphone jack doesn't function.

I have a problem with headphone sound with my Ubuntu 10.04 on laptop Acer Aspire TimelineX 4820 TG. When I insert the headphones, the sound from speakers stop, but there is no sound in the headphones. Manipulating with the alsamixer did not help. Modifying /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf also did not help.

Running 9.10 Ubuntu on my laptop. It connects fine to regular access poitns, but for some reason it won't connect to my android wifi adhoc sharing. I have it as dual boot with Windows and windows connects to it perfectly. From Ubuntu 9.10 it tries to connect... then just disconnects. Would be killer to be able to use it with my adhoc wifi sharing! I prefer my Ubuntu boot, rather than my windows one

I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 I love it. The only problem is my built-in mouse doesn't work. My usb mouse works fine but not the built-in one. When i was installing Ubuntu i used the USB mouse, The only problem is my mum needs it for her computer.

I am running Debian Squeeze on a laptop and I cannot get sound to work on it. It detects theres 2 sound cards in alsamixer and under cards i see HDA-Intel - HA ATI SB and HDA ATI SB at 0x90400000 irq 16. I think HDA-Intel is suppose to be selected not what is currently selected which is HDA ATI SB. If thats not an issue I'm not sure what is and I've tried reinstalling Squeeze and it still hasn't fixed the issue.

I looked around the settings on Ubuntu and I cannot prevent sound from being played on my laptop speakers when external (more powerful) speakers are plugged in. Windows automatically defers all sound output to the external ones as soon as it is plugged in.

I recently had sound 'working' as in I had to reload the alsa drivers each time I booted up my computer. After a year of giving up how to fix it, I looked it up again and was told to update my alsa drivers. I updated my drivers to version 1.0.23 and my sound was working but was still acting weird. For example, my sound would play a song, in Adobe Flash, at its highest volume even if the volume wasn't at max. I was just happy that I didn't have to reload the drivers, but this was another problem.Now, for some reason, sound just doesn't work. I've tried reloading the drivers several times and looked for a solution on these forums as well as on google. No luck. So I ask, is there anything I can do to get my sound to work?

I am running Fedora 10 on my laptop. Recently I installed Empathy to use voice chat on Linux, however, Empathy does not detect the laptops built in microphone! I have checked the audio settings and found that the mic is enabled. I know that the mic is working as it works fine when I am booted onto my Windows partition.

I've been using Ubuntu for a few years now and in general am very pleased with it; it's Achilles Heel is however WiFi.My daughter has an older HP laptop with built in Broadcom wifi, Lucid did not recognise this, neither did it recognise a Netgear PCI card or a Netgear USB adapter.Network manager showes wifi greyed out.lspci -vnn shows BCM4303 802.11b [14E4:4301] (rev 02)lshw shows *-network:1 UNCLAIMED and shows product as BCM4303 802.11b wireless LAN controller.Wifi is the most popular connection method for the average user, until it is made simpler to resolve problems a lot of potential Linux users

Started with a clean install, with new GeForce 6200 video card installed. Very impressed that when I tried to activate compiz, it informed me that I must download and install the relevant drivers - and it provided me with a 'one click' install! Now I'm running the latest driver (195) - well done guys!Anyway, happy as I am with a no-fuss install, I'd like to know what is everyones pick of CD ripper to MP3?
I've downloaded Asunder, but this seems very slow in comparison to other Windows-based apps I've tried.I wanted to try Sound Juicer, but unfortunately it requires some code to change from VBR to CBR @ 320kbps.

it might be simple but i have never been able to find this function on VLC
it is default on SMplayer and available on MoviePlayer though not default but i have looked around VLC carefully and see it nowhere
Maybe it simply is not there which is a shame as it is SO useful

I might have a different problems as I have a newer laptop, a HP dv6-2170us with intel i5 cpu. I had no wireless with the 2.6.31 kernel so I upgraded to the 2.6.34 and had to manually compile my wireless driver. Everything works great now except the sound issue. I thought it use to work out the box with the old kernel, but then again I might be wrong. I knwo it works in the "other os" dual booting and all. Its a not a huge issue, but hopeing I could resolve it. Here is some of the info from reading some of the other posts. the model=dell-vostro I just tried to see if that works, which is doesnt, so thats why thats in my sound.conf file.
[Code].....
Have I missed anything? I have tried the fix here: Audio coming from both headphone and laptop speakers - Page 3 - openSUSE Forums page 3 about adding a repo and upgrading, but that upgrade wants me to revert back to the older kernel in which case I dont have wireless support or acpi working proporly, so thats not a doable thing for me.
