[Bug 1132769] Re: [Asus X401U] external mic does not work

 

I think this is working nowadays; we have plenty of Dell hardware that now works in similar ways (although not exactly the same).
And it seems difficult to find the hardware to verify, so I'm marking this as Fix Released. If you still find the bug with the Asus X401U in the latest release of ubuntu, please reopen the bug.

Title:
  [Asus X401U] external mic does not work

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This system comes with a combo audio plug (headphone/mic) and accepts
  the 4 band apple plug headsets.  However, only output seems to work.
  On plugging in a headset that is known working hardware, the external
  audio becomes a selectable source in the sound config tool for output,
  but input only shows the internal mic available.
