[Bug 1409675] Re: [Dell Latitude E5450, Realtek ALC293] Microphone is being detected as headphone

 

This problem was fixed and was in the upstream already. This fix used
Codec pin quirk framework,but this framework was not in the linux-3.13,
so this fix was not backported to Trusty kernel.

If users install the latest alsa daily dkms, this problem will
disappear.
