It has analogue audio out from a 3.5mm jack socket or digital audio from the HDMI connector. I don't know whether HDMI provides for a low-level input suitable for a microphone. Probably not. I'm trying SpeakUp using speechd-up and speech-dispatcher tonight to see if that works any better. If not, the only way to avoid the vchiq (video core hardware interface queue) which causes the crash is to use USB audio. Of course it could be that something SpeakUp is doing is causing the null pointer dereference in the kernel.
