Mic not working ASUS x541ua [SOLVED]

#1 Post by santimoreno »

Hi people, I don't know because my mic not working with Debian Stretch in my new ASUS x541ua. The out sound is working fine but the microphone no :(
Can you help me to start to research where is the problem?

Excuse me for my poor english.

Regards,
@santimoreno

In the mixer isn't mutted:

Code: Select all

Simple mixer control 'Master',0

Hi,
finally I solved it by creating /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf (I do not know why this file does not exist in Stretch) and adding this code:

Code: Select all

options snd-hda-intel model=laptop-dmic
After rebooting appears in alsamixer my capture device and adjusting the levels I have finally been able to record.

Thanks,
@santimoreno
