I’ve been having trouble getting my internal microphone to work. (No input at all, not a question of noise.) Has anyone else experienced this? Things I should look at? I’m running PureOS, and have updated. But do I need to update some firmware?
I have checked I’m using the built-in audio system, the input gain is turned up, and the hardware kill switch is switched on (allowing video, eg). Is there more troubleshooting I should do? Anything I should look at to rule out a hardware fault?
(It’s usually not an issue for me, since an external headset is always going to be better, but I just started videoconferencing with multiple people in the room with me.)
Can you do sudo apt install pavucontrol and then run pavucontrol? This provides a more detailed interface for all audio settings. It also provides a switch between using the internal or an external mic.
The internal microphone should work, but other people (including myself) so far cannot get an external mic working
I’m a little confused by the different conversations happening, but for my internal microphone, I was able to get it to work after updating CoreBoot and the EC firmware.
