Bonjour,
I have strange problem with my integrated microphone on my laptop (dell
latitude, E6400).
1- This microphone did not work out of the box; after googling for a
while, I added a
/etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf file with this line:
options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m4-1
2- The microphone doesn't work at boot time. If I open
apps>sound&video>pavu, I can "see" that the microphne exists (it is an
enhancement!) but I cannot do anything to have it working.
3- If I open skype and call the "call test service" a small microphone
appears in the notification area an I can use a slide to tune the input
volume (it is still an enhancement!) but the microphone does not work!
4- If I open audacity, and press the record button.... hurrah! the
microphone works, and works also with other apps (skype, ekiga....)
until I reboot the machine.
Let us summarize: To have my mic working, proper tools for configuration
(pavu control...) are useless, I have to use an apps which is not done
for this!
How can I configure my mic to work as soon as I log in?
Thanks for helping.
