[Bug 1074641] Re: Combo jack (TRRS) microphone doesn't work, internal microphone stays active

 

Rafał Ochmański, as per
http://www.dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/Product/vostro-v131
an update is available for your BIOS (A06). If you update to this, does
it change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Thank you for your understanding.

** Description changed:

  After connecting headphones with microphone to combo jack (TRRS),
  internal microphone stays active and headset microphone is not being
  used.
  
- Similar reports have been filed, one here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/950490 but adding 
-     options snd-hda-intel model=laptop-dmic 
- to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf doesn't solve the problem for me. 
- 
- This really should just work, there is absolutely no reason to prefer the internal mic which barely produces usable input anyway.
