alsa-project/alsa-ucm-conf issue #528 was edited from chanster: The Rear Microphone is not detected when I plug in my mic. I don't use the Front Audio connection as my case doesn't have I/O for it, I just used the 2 audio ports in the rear. When I try recording directly I can get the mic to work, but it does not show up in the sound settings. `arecord --duration=3 -D hw:CARD=2,DEV=1 -f dat -vvv a.wav` ``` Hardware PCM card 2 'USB Audio' device 1 subdevice 0 Its setup is: stream : CAPTURE access : RW_INTERLEAVED format : S16_LE subformat : STD channels : 2 rate : 48000 exact rate : 48000 (48000/1) msbits : 16 buffer_size : 24000 period_size : 6000 period_time : 125000 tstamp_mode : ENABLE tstamp_type : MONOTONIC period_step : 1 avail_min : 6000 period_event : 0 start_threshold : 1 stop_threshold : 24000 silence_threshold: 0 silence_size : 0 boundary : 6755399441055744000 appl_ptr : 0 hw_ptr : 0 Recording WAVE 'a.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Stereo Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00000167 # 1% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x000000da # 0% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x000006b1 ## 5% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00000547 # 4% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00000729 ## 5% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00000a77 ## 8% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x000006d2 ## 5% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x000005ec # 4% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00000627 # 4% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00000d32 ### 10% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00000e9f ### 11% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00003813 ######### 43% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00006278 ################ 76% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00007fff #################### 99% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00006694 ################# 80% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x000068ea ################# 81% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00004ba0 ############ 59% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x0000207c ###### 25% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x000017e9 #### 18% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00003938 ######### 44% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00001f11 ##### 24% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00000ee5 ### 11% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00003944 ######### 44% Max peak (12000 samples): 0x00003942 ######### 44% ``` Motherboard: Gigabyte B850I Aorus Pro (rev 1.0) Audio Device: ALC4080 Distro: Fedora 41 Window Manager: Gnome-Shell Packages: ``` dnf list --installed | grep 'pipewire\|pulseaudio\|alsa' alsa-lib.i686 1.2.13-3.fc41 updates alsa-lib.x86_64 1.2.13-3.fc41 updates alsa-ucm.noarch 1.2.13-3.fc41 updates alsa-ucm-utils.x86_64 1.2.13-2.fc41 updates alsa-utils.x86_64 1.2.13-2.fc41 updates pipewire.i686 1.2.7-7.fc41 updates pipewire.x86_64 1.2.7-7.fc41 updates pipewire-alsa.i686 1.2.7-7.fc41 updates pipewire-alsa.x86_64 1.2.7-7.fc41 updates pipewire-gstreamer.x86_64 1.2.7-7.fc41 updates pipewire-libs.i686 1.2.7-7.fc41 updates pipewire-libs.x86_64 1.2.7-7.fc41 updates pipewire-pulseaudio.x86_64 1.2.7-7.fc41 updates pipewire-utils.x86_64 1.2.7-7.fc41 updates pulseaudio-libs.i686 17.0-2.fc41 fedora pulseaudio-libs.x86_64 17.0-2.fc41 fedora pulseaudio-libs-glib2.x86_64 17.0-2.fc41 fedora wine-alsa.i686 10.1-1.fc41 updates wine-alsa.x86_64 10.1-1.fc41 updates wine-pulseaudio.i686 10.1-1.fc41 updates wine-pulseaudio.x86_64 10.1-1.fc41 updates ``` `lsusb | grep -i audio` ``` Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0414:a014 Giga-Byte Technology Co., Ltd USB Audio ``` `alsactl monitor` (unplugging and plugging mic) ``` node hw:2, #9 (0,0,0,Mic -
