I am using a Lenovo W530 laptop with a Realtek ACL 269 VC/HDA Intel PCH sound card. Currently I am using Fedora-20 but previously I used Ubuntu 13.10. On both systems I have been unable to make the internal microphone work. I know that there is a problem with the microphone mute button and not sure if this is the entire problem. Output sound appears to be just fine. I have tried changing my settings in AlsaMixer without positive results. I have made sound tests using Audacity as well as Skype. It appears that on start-up the system defaults to the "Default" Pulse Audio. I have followed several suggestions on various forums without success. Assistance would be most appreciated.
