Recently, external microphone has stopped working while using classic wired audio combo jack headset.
Basics:
1) Headset's microphone works fine both in MS Windows on the same machine and on older Xubuntu on another machine.
2) Internal laptop mic works normally.
3) Yes, I have mic unmuted in settings.
