When I played with alsamixer before, I saw that only Capture1 works for me. This time I set both Capture1 and Capture2 levels to some high value and saw that Capture2 does not change anything. >From the other side, using hda_analyzer I noticed that that MSB of the volume actually means "mute", that is when I see something like 9f there is no sound recored, while 1f produces sound. And then I saw that this bit reflects the "Mute" checkbox state. > > Are you sure that Skype/pulseaudo open the same subdevice ? I think so. First, It worked before. I have no pulseaudio. Skype just uses hw:0 device. It does some recording, but the audio is very distorted (low volume, no high frequencies, kind of clipped). I disabled the Skype option to adjust mixer volumes and play with it myself. > > "Capture1" switch is associated with Node 0x14 [Audio Input] > > Refer to the graph in hda_analyzer , when you place the mouse cursor inside > the "out" box of the Node 0x1e (Front Mic Pin) , there are three red lines > indicate the possible connections to 0x14, 0x16 and 0x17 > > Unlike the other HDA codec , your vt1708s has only one "Input Souce" control > and two ADC > > For the other HDA codec, the number of "Input Source" controls is usually > equal to the number of ADC, this mean that some input sources (e.g. mic ) > can only be connected to one ADC . > > As you can see in the graph, node 0x14 can be connected to 0x1e only > > All the connected audio path are displayed as blue line and it is strange > there are no blue line connected to both the node 0x13 and 0x14 [Audio > Input] I will not be able to check it for about a week. When I'll have access to my PC again, I'll re-check and let you know what I see.
