[Franko Burolo <franko.burolo@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have tried adding "options snd-hda-intel model=dell-headset-multi" to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf. Sound settings seem to recognize a headset is plugged with that option, but the headset's mic itself remains deaf, no matter how much boost I give it. I guess the option isn't working correctly, because, obviously, I am not running a Dell laptop, but also because I am running the Realtek ALC233 codec, and that option model is only listed as working on codecs ALC269/270/275/276/28x/29x and ALC66x/67x/892.
I am talking about this list: http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-kernel.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt;hb=HEAD
Funny thing is that ALC233 is not listed there at all... Anyway, it seems like, for now, the closest I could get to make a headset working was with that Dell-related option. I hope that helps.

Title:
  [SATELLITE C50-B, Realtek ALC233, Mic, Internal] No autoswitch

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  It is a Toshiba Satellite C50-B-15N to be precise. It has a single combo plug, and Ubuntu fails to switch to the headset microphone when a combo jack is plugged in.
  Sometimes even the output fails switching to phones, but it only happens very seldom, and after a reboot it works fine again. But the mic just never ever switches, only the laptop's built-in one is always working.

  I am using an up to date Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid Vervet with Unity and
  standard audio set-up. I haven't (yet) change anything audio-related.
  I have started this bug with apport, so I believe most of these
  details are reported there.

  Probably a different bug, but it could be related: The built-in mic is
  stereo, but only its left side is actually working, as a normal
  single-channel mic. The right side is deaf.

  Let me know if you need other info.

  Thanks!
