i attached at the end of the file /etc/modprobe.
options snd-hda-intel model=5stack
but the built-in mic does not work anyway. even after checking many times alsamixer settings. Only the plugged one works.
Tim Gardner (timg-tpi) wrote : | #4 |
I guess my earlier comment was misleading. Setting model=5stack only enables the external microphone. I don't have the right pinout to get the internal microphone working.

Confirmed that this is not actually working, even with linux-backports
Went through some debug items with #alsa, and came up with nothing. Looks like we may have to depend on the hardware vendor for some help here.

I have a Dell XPS M1330. I noticed that my internal microphone was not working after Gutsy install. I found this bug report and I installed linux-backports
Before the new Package I had only "General Volume", Now I have "General Volume" and "PCM".
Also, the sound volume is very low when using internal speakers, even with volume at max.
Jesper de Jong (jespdj) wrote : | #19 |
Thank you for the fix Tim, it works!
Christophe: Try the following. Open the GNOME volume manager by double-clicking on the volume icon in the top left of the screen. Then select Edit / Preferences and enable the following additional tracks: Front, Digital Input Source. Click Close.
Now you will have "Front" in the Playback tab. Set it a little higher and the sound from the internal speakers will get louder.
On the Options tab, select "Digital Mic 1" for the option "Digital Input Source".
On the Recording tab, you will have a slider named "Digital". Turn it up and click on the microphone icon on the bottom if it has a red cross on it to enable the microphone.
Try recording and playing back some sound, with for example the Sound Recorder (Applications / Sound & Video / Sound Recorder).

Sorry if I am off-topic but I have a Dell Latitude D630.
If I put model=5stack I can have the mic working, but I have the problem that the volume of the central channel starts rising automatically.
If I put model=dell-m42 like proposed in other threads I don't have the volume problem, but the mic is hardly heard.
Any ideas about the correct model for my laptop?
Thanks a lot

Thanks JesperDJ. It does work here too now.
Christophe Dumez (hydr0g3n) wrote : | #22 |
However, internal mic volume is too low, and internel speakers volume is too low too. Even with mic volume at max, this is very difficult to hear. Concerning internal speakers, my volume is set pretty high too (and front is at max).
Christophe Dumez (hydr0g3n) wrote : | #23 |
I think this appeared after I used the linux-backports
When playing music (with rythmbox), the sound gets louder and louder with time (until it reaches max, pretty fast). However, if I look gnome sound control tool, the volume does not change (stays at ~50%). Is anyone experiencing the same problem?
Christophe Dumez (hydr0g3n) wrote : | #24 |
I confirm that the increasing sound volume problem is due to linux-backports

Hi people, I managed to get the mic working on my XPS M1330, but with this update, the master volume is no more controlled by the special keys over the keyboard (the ones with de led blue lights). Do you know how to restore the control?

@ Christophe
Thanks but it seems that in my Latitude D630 things are a bit different. I should find a more appropriate bug in launchpad to ask there
@Albert

The last sub-window has a list of the channels controlled by buttons. Select the one(s) you want.

Please tell me if I'm in the wrong place. I have a Dell Inspiron 8120 and I recently loaded Gutsy. I installed Skype and intended to use the mic plug with my corded headset, but it doesn't work. I've searched everywhere and tried many lines of code to no avail. Can I get my mic plug to work on this machine with Ubuntu??
Thanks,

I have a Latitude D630 so I don't know if it applies to you.
What I did is to use the
options snd-hda-intel model=5stack
line in the /etc/modprobe.
I still have the problem of the volume going automatically up but my microphone is functioning ok.
I still did not manage to make my soundcard fully functional without bugs.
If there is anyone having managed it I would really appreciate it to learn how :)
Benson Margulies (bimargulies) wrote : | #37 |
After installing the backport, I still don't get the 'digital input source' option in alsamixer or anywhere else.
However, I had previously followed the instructions in https:/
At this instant, the alsa-base file in modprobe.d says 'snd-hda-intel model=3stack'.
I have an XPS m1330. I would be most grateful for any advice about sorting out all these conflicting instructions.

Jose,
Installed the l-u-b from linux.dell.com on M1530 running Gutsy, rebooted, and still no microphone. Neither Skype nor Ekiga work.
It did fix some of the user interface problems though and now I can at least control volume. Before this, it was either off or 100%.
Jose De la Rosa (jose-de-la-rosa) wrote : | #42 |
Kenneth,
The custom l-b-m v50 was not tested or qualified on the XPS 1530, and even though I suspect the 1530 is highly leveraged off the XPS 1330 (where it was tested and it does work), it's very possible this fix may not work on the 1530.
Make sure all your alsamixer settings are unmuted and raise their volume level. Also make sure the Digital Input Source is set to Digital. Test with the Sound Recorder tool in Applications -> Sound & Video.
Glad to know that volume is now working correctly, didn't know that was an issue on the 1530. Like I said, we have not tested Ubuntu on the XPS 1530.
If you're still having problems, then please open a separate bug.
Kenneth Loafman (kenneth-loafman) wrote : | #43 |

Thanks for all the hard work you guys are doing. Let me know if I can help on the M1530.
I'm going to put in a separate bug for the XPS 1530 microphone issue.

Mikael B,
You can 'apt-get install linux-backports
IOW, it does the 'right thing'. I would probably do a reboot afterwards, just to be sure, but its not required.
At this point, the 1530 microphone still does not work with the linux-backports

I confirm this bug in Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.1
The microphone works out-of-the-box but you have to configure it, however:
1. Double-click the volume control icon in the top right of the screen.
2. Select Edit / Preferences.
3. Add "Digital" and "Digital Input Source" to the list of visible tracks.
4. On the Options tab, select "Digital Mic 1" for "Digital Input Source".
5. On the Recording tab, set the volume for the microphone.
TKFRC (tkfrc) wrote : | #57 |
I had the same problem on my Ubuntu XPS 1330
To get around it I opened up the sound preferences. In sound preferences I opened edit->preferences from the menu bar and turned all checks on. Then I turned everything way up. A few of the sources were initially muted. "Digital Input Source" in the Options menu chooses between the two mics. I'm getting feedback from the built-in mic but I'm sure the volume settings just need tweaking (something I'm not particularly interested in right now)

Adnan (adnan-zein) wrote : | #60 |
Hello Javier,
I think the bug you pointed isn't the one. I've seen some people talk about a bug that corresponds to mine, but no dedicated bug thread.
In the Volume Control applet, with the Device set to HDA Intel (Alsa mixer), the Recording tab shows all controls (Capture, Digital, Mux) with the audio recording toggled OFF (small red cross on the mic. icon under each vertical slider). Even after toggling the icon, it goes back to toggled off the next time the volume control is opened.
I'm new to launchpad actually, what should I do then?

If you want a temporary workaround, then run this command:
sudo echo "options snd-hda-intel model=5stack" >> /etc/modprobe. d/alsa- base
Make sure your speakers and microphone are not muted. I think the best mixer for that is gnome-alsamixer.
I am implementing a fix in Gutsy l-u-m that detects this particular codec and initializes it correctly.
