Summary:                    No sound from mic on Fujitsu Siemens Amilo M3438G
Description: 
I own a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo M3438G notebook with an onboard Azalia 7.1
SPDIF chipset/codec (see spec sheet at
http://www.fujitsu-siemens.de/ps/db/notebook/ds_amilo_m3438g_m4438g_d.pdf).
OpenSuSE 10.1 (Kernel 2.6.16.13) is installed; the module snd-hda-intel is
 loaded. Sound playback through the internal speakers and headphone does
work but I am unable to get sound from the internal and external
microphone. The alsamixer has three capture controls which all are set to
capture and maximum volume. Each capture controls source is set to mic.
The playback channel for mic is unmuted and also set to maximum volume but
I just don't get a signal.

I've tried to apply different model options to the snd-hda-intel module
relating to the file ALSA-Configuration.txt without luck.

This didn't work with OpenSuSE 10.0 (Kernel 2.6.13) either.

If you need any technical information please let me know.

Hi, I experienced the same Problem with my M3438G. I was running Kubuntu
Breezy, Kubuntu Dapper and Kanotix als well as ALSA 1.0.10, 1.0.11rcX and
1.0.11. When I load the module without any additional parameters "cat
/sys/module/snd_hda_intel/parameters/model" returns "<NULL>", don't know
if this behavior is expected or not. 

Then I tried passing model=fujitsu and such, but couldn't get the
microphone to work. But when I tried model=auto (Should be the default
according to the documentation, but obviously it isn't) I got it to work
by turning up the leftmost capture control an setting it's input source to
Front Mic. 

I still got some high pitched noise in the background of any recording
when using Ubuntu Breezy, but that seems to be a different Problem.

Hello el,

I've tried that but it doesn't give satisfying results. First of all the
channels are assigned falsely, e.g. Front is actually the headphone. At
least they were correct when I didn't pass model=auto to the module.

Secondly I only get a signal from the microphone when I shout into it
(=when it's loud) plus the sound quality is pretty bad.
