HP 6930p: mute button doesn't work properly

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
