ACER Laptop Microphone doesn't show in pulseaudio input devices.

HI, I've just installed Arch linux with pulseaudio, pulseaudio-alsa, alsa-utils, alsa-firmware and pavucontrol
First, the speakers did not work so I've put this in the following file path /etc/modprobe.d/inteldsp.conf

options snd_intel_dspcfg dsp_driver=1

Then the spearkes and headphones started to work, but I found that I cannot use the integrated microphone of my laptop camera.
My laptop is an ACER SWIFT X sfx16-51g. with intel processor.

I have installed pavucontrol and it only shows: buit in analog stereo ANALOG INPUT, I've tried other things like  adding

 load-module module-loopback latency_msec=1 

to /etc/pulse/default.pa and still the same problem. I can't see my microphone of my laptop webcam listed on input devices (ANALOG INPUT DOESN'T CAPTURE MY VOICE, so it isn't my mic)

Can someone help me?

Re: ACER Laptop Microphone doesn't show in pulseaudio input devices.

dsp_driver=1 expectedly breaks the mic.

Remove that config file, install sof-firmware and reboot
