HDA intel MOBO: no microphone sound
I'm using Feisty Fawn, just seting up Ekiga and get no microphone. I will not pretend this is new, i also get no microphone in Skype as well.
This MOBO (Intel 965) is brand new, I have tried to find updated drivers for it but the flavour is listed as ICH8 which is not supported yet. Is there an answer coming soon, how soon ,etc.
What am I trying to achieve? I am trying to make phone calls where other people will hear me. I am trying to do it in ALSA, especially since OSS shows no panel for recording or capturing sound at all,
I have played with the alsamixer panel extensively, tried turning things on one by one, tried a number of suggested work-arounds, but they are all for older hardware that is supported.
Curiously this mobo is supposed to be the first with completely open source drivers, or so i read somewhere, maybe i misunderstood.
What else can I tell you, everything is updated. I have not tried the "mercury" (hg) versions for alsa, I am just not going to rush into messing up too fast without some solid support behind me.

OK, I ran the script and will both paste the output below and attach it
for whatever you wish to do. You'll see that it exited with an error
that it could not run wget and upload to "pastebin" because teh wget
version was less than 1.8.~. that sounded wrong so I checked the version
and it was 1.10.~. HMMMMM.
anyway, the uploading to pastebin sounded too tedious for me, frankly I
don't know how to do it except as an ftp and I haven't upped an ftp for
over a year so..... it is 11:50 PM and I'm on my way to bed as well. I
do appreciate your help though, please don't think I'm blowing you off,
just that i'm tired and cranky tonight. I hope the cut and paste
solution is adequate.

Yes, I can see you were a bit sleepy!
Try rerunning the script like this:
bash alsa-info.sh --no-upload argument
and paste here the content of the /tmp/alsa-info.txt file that will be created.

Never mind, we finally got the data.
Now, try using the Mic boost track and see if you get the mic working with that (you have it set to front mic, so I guess that is fine by you?).
If with that still doesn't work, add this to your /etc/modprobe.
options snd-hda-intel model=XXX
With XXX from this list:
6stack 6-jack
6stack-dig ditto with SPDIF
3stack 3-jack
3stack-dig ditto with SPDIF
laptop 3-jack with hp-jack automute
laptop-dig ditto with SPDIF
auto auto-config reading BIOS (default)
Start with auto and/or try the one which seems to match better your hardware (you need to reboot after every modification to this file).
If still it doesn't work, try updating to the latest drivers. See this page on how to:

front mike on, front mike boost on with (plain) mike and mike boost off: no change
front mike and mike boost on and (plain) mike and mike boost on: Can hear voice through headphones but not connecting to the ekiga system through the phone lines: there is no 4 second delay in the druid test.
BTW: i have noticed with the skype call testing service that it is picking up a carrier sometimes and playing back an empty file, while other times there is no carrier and it plays nothing back (see the difference? it's a matter of the time) This might have some utility. For example, right now I can "hear" the fuzz from the mike in the headphones, but this is only useful for the "sound recorder"
OK, I have tried some of the various flavour settings you have listed but I will go through each now and report on each as I go:

auto auto-config reading BIOS: both Ekiga and skype do not register the sound device at all
I will skip the two laptop configs, this is a full size MOBO (P5N family, it's the chipset that is brand spanking new)
and start at the top because i have a 6 jack set in the back

6stack 6-jack: no joy. It should be noted here that the message I am gettting is that there is not sound device found: in other words ALSA is not loading at all with both these prior configs, whereas with the original it was at least loading, if not activating the mike.
for reference: here is the product brief on the chipset: http://
If you go to the Intel site and search <P965+ICH8> you get a lot about the product, it's not cutting edge, just new, and the ICH8 I/O controler does not seem to be well supported, or at least the last time I checked they had support for the other "stacks" (3stack, 7 stack and 6stack but not for ICH8, which might be who knows what)
anyway, now I'll try this one:

6stack-dig ditto with SPDIF: also no joy, still no carrier as well, Skype says: problem with sound device (will not even try to dial) Ekiga does not list any sound device. same same.
I was thinking about skipping the tedious repetition and jump to the recommended page listed above when I looked at it: been there done that already, no joy.
is there any chance that the ALSA mercurial has solved it yet?
anyway, i'll keep on with :

OK, I worked through the how-to again with no problems or errors. I checked the box for the motherboard and confirmed that it is the AD1988A sound controler which, when looking in the ALSA configuration.text file shows a 6stack model which exactly describes my mobo and chipset and says that it has ICH8 support.
NO joy, still
However on checking the /prc/asound directories as suggested for teh codecs I find there is no codec file, and no /card0 directory. could this be the problem?
There does not appear to be anything out of line or erroring in any way. I have the mike switches on after the reload of the ALSA drivers, lib and utils so .....
I'm going crazy with this, but i'll try the auto model and give it one last go then i'll wait for you. unless i write about it working it ain't
oh, and thanks, i do appreciate it

I noticed that you have 3 "Capture" controls, and the first and third are muted. This reminds me of a bug I have reported. Try open the Volume Control panel, and in its Preferences enable all capture tracks. Then in the mixer, mute the second and third Capture, and unmute the first.

Hi Tormod,
I tried that, but if you notice I had gone back to an "auto" model in the alsabase configuration. This gave me a sound device failure, let me try it with the 6stack model and see what happens

no joy I'm afraid. Anybody know if that codec thingy could have a bearing? not that I have a clue, but it is the only thing that has shown any negative anything, except that the microphone don't work of course.
In desperation I carefully checked the hardware and the wiring, sorry, it is all good.
When I had this problem previously in FC6 I found that I could switch to OSS for the microphone and use the microphone control panel there to enable the mike. this is not possibnle here because there is no enabled capture panel for OSS. Is this useful info or not?

Just becayuse I have messed things around a bit doing all this i ran the ALSA info script again, this time I got a site !!!
here is the paste:
Uploading information to www.pastebin.ca ... Done!
Your ALSA information is located at http://
Please inform the person helping you.
ok, so maybe there is something new there of value, cause i'm out of bullets

To give you a reference, here is my (working) set:
In Menu->System-
Sound Capture: Mic capture
In Volume Control:
Recording:
All muted but: Master Capture (set level) and Microphone (set level)
Switches:
Mic boost ON
Options:
Mic select: Mic1
Your controls might be sligthly different, but see what logically seems to match mine.

Hi Cesare,
Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, My daughter graduated from
High school wed. night and we had a good-bye party (we're moving) last
night.
So, lets see, I went into the System> preferences>Sound. What i have is
two playback sections up top, then in the middle an "audio conferencing"
section that includes a sound capture section, but that does not include
Mic capture, or anything like that. It was preset to the OSS capture
device (see screenshot atttached) I tried to get the drop-down windo to
stay open for the SS but it wouldn't. The other choices are: Alsa, Pulse
Audio Sound Server, Silence, Test sound, OSS along with the shown "AD
198x analog" .
In volume control: I'm in the Alsa section since OSS does not show a
capture section, I am attaching a screen shot of the mixer panel on
capture plus the preference panel showing the only choices that are not
turned on. I don't have a Mike 1 control, but all the other mike
controls are on, but muted except for the primary capture control. This
is based on someone else's recommendation.
So, unfortunately, nothing seems to really match yours. this is the
problem I have encountered previously as well when I try to do this stuff.
see what you can make of the screenshots, I'm game for anything just
point and I'll shoot.
Thanks for your time and effort

Thanks Jim, but we don't get file attachments here.
The new version of ALSA is out since a couple of days, you may want to check it out. Looking at the changelog they fixed few issues from rc4 re HDA.
Hope this will fix it......

Hi Cesare,
Can I just Apt-get install or is there another better way to load the
update?

No, you can't use apt-get as these have not yet been packaged for Ubuntu.
You need to download and compile the source packages, as you did for rc4;
for instance follow the instructions of this link (which I have already given to you):
https:/
Just make sure to do it for 1.0.14 not 1.0.14rc4

Hi Cesare,
You'll love this one. I have three computers here that I'm working with,
(this is just some background so you'll really enjoy the punchline) One
is a two year old desktop box I built with off teh shelf relatively
medium priced stuff, pentium d, asrock mobo, via chipset: all very
stable and middle of the road. Then I have this desktop I've been
working with you on, i got some upper-end new stuff for this one, just
put it together a few weeks ago. Then my daughter's laptop which we
bought off the shelf but we ordered one laptop and this one had just
replaced it, much better specs for the same price so the guy i buy parts
from knew i would want it, and i did but it has been tough.
OK, got the picture? Now, Ubuntu FF on this machine, UbuntuStudio on the
2 year old and Vista and a crippled Ubuntu FF on the lappie. Update
notifier on the two year old so I upgraded it, this was maybe 20 minutes
after I got your e-mail and so I noticed some kernal stuff in the up and
checked the alsa panel, whoa! new stuff, lets try it out!!! wow!!! Skype
works now, Ekiga works now Whoopee! come to this machine and yes!!! the
update notifier says to update, I do, and restart for the kernal stuff
and....
allllllllllllll
CLI: alsamixer: "function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device"
volume control: "No volume control Gstreamer and sound control devices
found"
well, of course it must still be there somewhere and obviously we can
fix it all but i find it screamingly funny. so, i'll let you cogitate
and we can try something again. But first, I'm gonna strip FF out of
here and reload it. I am not happy with my basic partition system and
the permission system seems screwy to me. I stripped my machine at
school (work) and rebuilt it in a more stable way with much improved
results, so I'll work on that tonight and tomorrow, in the process of
putting it back together it might look different and we'll get back
together and see what happens.
thanks, i thought you'd appreciate the humor of this one though

Well, it worked. I stripped it all out and put it all back together, repartitioned to a /boot in the first 200Mb followed by /root in the main part and swap at the end. with the /home on a separate 320GB disk. All very solid now. I made a slight adjustment to teh sound volume controls, nothing that you hadn't suggested, and now it works. So, the lesson I learned was that because Gnu/Linux is a complete and complex unit it is important that everything is solid or you will have curious and difficult, perhaps insoluble, problems in apparently unrelated things.
Thus, the problems that manifested as curious permission requirements (I had to log in as root in the terminal and mount one of the partitions on the 320G HDD and on any flash drive that was plugged in) also played out in ALSA problems. Solutions like reformating and starting from scratch may seem draconian, but since I could migrate data and I use simple stuff mostly that doesn't require complex setup I can strip and reload in just a day or so. worthwhile in the long term.
Really, it was those years with Win95 and 98 where I had to reformat every 6 months or so that made it easy for me. Thanks to Bill Gates it didn't bother me at all!!!!!!
