Title:
  microphone only recording white noises

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When I try to use my built-in microphone, nothing is recorded but very
  loud white noises. I managed to lower the volume of those noises using
  alsamixer, but I still can't hear anything but those noises.

  It may be irrelevant to you, but after some chatting with ChatGPT, it
  told me that it's 'likely a driver/ALSA quirk issue: the Realtek
  ALC256 codec in my Unowhy Y13 isn't correctly initialized under Linux'

  I am using Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS
  pulseaudio is version 1:16.1+dfsg1-2ubuntu10.1
  I expect to be at least able to hear my voice when I talk
  Instead, I can only hear white noises and nothing else
