[Bug 1519595] [NEW] No analog input for headphone microphone in system settings

 

Public bug reported:

Up until just a few weeks ago my headphone microphone was working fine
in Ubuntu 14.04, but recently the only input selection available in the
settings menu is the 'Internal microphone'. I've looked in alsamixer,
but it only has one entry for 'mic' and another for 'mic boost'.
Plugging in the mic input drops the internal mic input to no sound, but
the headphone mic doesn't seem to be sending any sound through to the
computer. The stereo out jack is working fine.
