[SOLVED] Asus ExpertBook B5602 with an ALC294 codec - no 4pin mic

Hello, I'm a complete Linux newbie.
Please excuse me for asking, but I haven’t been able to fix a microphone issue for almost half a year...

I have an Asus ExpertBook B5602 with an ALC294 codec, and I’m experiencing a problem with the headset microphone connected through the 4-pin audio jack in Linux.
The internal speakers, internal microphones, and the headset speakers all work fine.
I have no problems with audio in Windows at all.

Here is my "dmesg | grep -E 'snd|sof'":
