[ubuntu] LT3103 Front mic strange issues Karmic Koala

http://ubuntuforums.org – Hi ! I made some tests with my front mic ( the one up to the screen ) today. I was trying to use my front microphone with skype and... it never worked. So I try to record something with the Sound Recorder installed by default with Ubuntu, and here it works. I have a lot of noise but I can hear my voice almost clearly. So I dig a little bit in alsamixer, and PulseAudio parameters but I didn't get something which works with skype. Then I plug an external microphone on the side of the laptop and there everything works perfectly... I was wondering if someone could explain my how that front mic is wired to the sound card, and how to use it. The sound card got 2 inputs ? or is it the same input switched between the front mic and the external mic when we plug something in ? Tell me if you also have some issues with you're LT3103 or some solutions :) Thanks Diffy (Hardware)

I have a 5.1 Surround Headset (Speedlink Medusa NX) which is plugged in to my 7.1 (I think) Onboard Sound card. The Headset does have a USB plug, but I think that one is only used for getting electricity.

My computer also has some front jacks which are working perfectly fine. My normal speakers are plugged in here.

I can't see my Headset in the "System Settings -> Sound -> Output" area.

I set up my fathers computer (Ubuntu 11.10) and receiver using Setup_audio_over_HDMI_on_nVidia_GeForce/nForce_controller and the mapping using Pulseaudio worked great when using speaker-test but when we play stereo audio there is sound in front l, front r AND front center but no lfe.

Hi everyone,

Can someone advise me on a certain microphone issue.

I am not very experienced in linux and have this problem with microphone which works fine on Windows.

Hi there,

I just installed Ubuntu 12.10 on a Acer Aspire One ZG5 (AOA 110), then Skype, and I can't make the microphone work. I tried this method with alsamixer

Weird Microphone Issue 22 weeks 3 days ago

Hi all, wondering if someone can help me figure this out....

My microphone isn't working regularly.People can not hear me on phone calls. It won't record, video has no sound, no Google Now voice actions, etc...

But... it works on speakerphone (I've google that and comes across many instances of that problem)

It also works if i plug a microusb cord in the port. Thats the strange one.

i did a clean install on ubuntu 12.10. Everything seemed fine at first including sound but after a while it stopped working.
