( I send this again in a new topic, thank to Patrick for telling me not to reply an existing mail )
Hi friends,
I need help on my problem with HP 6930p multimedia keys
- When built-in speakers are used, the button works correctly - When using external speakers/earphone, sound is always on ( even when mute button is on ). If I unplug, sound is back to the mute button's current state - In any case, system tray icon doesn't change ( even If internal speakers are used, mute button works, the sound state doesn't change to "mute" when sound is off )
I also notice that the microphone volume is very low compared to output sound. So when I use a recording program ( particularly Audacity ), the playback sound is unexpectedly low. I don't know if these problems are related, just in case they are ...
Thank you, Hoang Le

They might be related, driver-wise, or audio software-wise. But do you know that input levels (e.g. microphone) are separately controlled from output levels (e.g. playback or monitoring)? You need to play with the mixer to set them, and Audacity has some input choice and level controls of its own. Audacity has some level meters, so you can watch for changes as you play around. You may have to click on them to make them respond if you're not recording at the time.
Hi,
Please tell me the chipset you use in your machine. I have purchased an HP and met this problem also. Maybe I know an solution to it, if it's an Altec Lansig chipset (or as known Azalia, or such). Hp lately uses ATI RS XXX chipsets, and this needs one line of modification, and after it perhaps will work.
To decision please provide the following info: 'lsmod' and 'aplay -l'
Thank you.
Zoltan.
PS: Lots of new chipsets are arriving to 34 an 35 kernels - so don't worry.

Well,
This is not the chip that I have probably thought of, but I just only hope that helps. This line helped to me, and I think puts the HDA Intel snd driver right direction. There is no guarantee it works but one try - and we will see it. Maybe another kernel glitch - and it will be repaired in further kernels.
So... Let's try.
First - stand back to default, as you boot in - don't run anything that needs sound. Secondly - create an empty text file - named 'alsa-base.conf' Third - For content insert this single line without quotes - ' options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1' - and save it. Fourth - place this file as root to /etc/modprobe.d Fifth - close everything, and restart the complete fedora.
If you return, first - try mic, and try to play something. If everything seems alright, then try to mute.
HTH.
See you,
Zoltan

If you don't want SELinux issues, you should probably: Either create that file in that location, or cp (copy) it to there. But don't mv (move) it to there.

You can mv it but make sure you fix the label, by executing restorecon LOCATION
