Hallo everybody,

I would like to ask you, how to solve this problem, because my microphone and internal speaker doesn't work (external works) in my laptop. I using alsa. I dont know how to better describe this problem, therefore i insert here some command outputs. If you will need something else, just write what (write command). Thank you for help :) . PS: Sorry for my english.

If you look closely at the "amixer" output you will see that the Speaker control is OFF and also the Capture device (mic) is OFF. Go into "alsamixer" and unmute those channels with the "m" ley.
