fix audio driver

I have successfully managed to install arch on my Lenovo Yoga 7 Gen 7 https://www.lenovo.com/gb/en/laptops/yo … e.com%252F. I have got most things working except the audio. By the way It runs ryzen 6000 cpu if that makes a difference. Firstly I only get audio out of my front speakers and not both. Secondly, the microphone doesn't work in pavucontrol it just says it's unavailable. If I run

inxi -a

this is what I get

Audio:
  Device-1: AMD Rembrandt Radeon High Definition Audio driver: snd_hda_intel
  Device-2: AMD ACP/ACP3X/ACP6x Audio Coprocessor driver: snd_pci_acp6x
  Device-3: AMD Family 17h/19h HD Audio driver: snd_hda_intel
  Sound Server-1: ALSA v: k5.18.11 running: yes
  Sound Server-2: PipeWire v: 0.3.55 running: yes

I run KDE if that helps at all. if you need more info let me know and if anyone can help that would be great.

Re: fix audio driver

aplay -lL
arecord -l
pactl list cards
pactl list sinks
pactl list sources

would be good for starters

Re: fix audio driver

I am from the Thinkbook 14+ keyboard thread. My internal microphone also doesn't work, I have no other audio problems.

What did you do to fix the main audio issue? Does your laptop have 4 speakers like mine?

Re: fix audio driver

I also tried to use

hdaretask

but I'm not sure what I'm doing there and nothing works still
Also noticed that when I run alsamixer I see this for the front and rear speakers is that normal?

Re: fix audio driver

After some more investigative debugging, I discovered that the audio codec is actually ALC3306 according to https://psref.lenovo.com/Product/Yoga_7_14ARB7?tab=spec.  Now how do I change the codec? I looked at this page in the wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Advanc … ing_codecs and tried adding an

alsa_base.conf

which then didn't work. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong. I really want to get my audio driver working properly. Thank you!

oh well looks like I need to do some more fiddling around. If you can do you mind telling me what codec you're using

Re: fix audio driver

It says ALC257 from arecord. Lenovo lists ALC3287. Is ALC257 the audio jack microphone instead of the internal one?

https://psref.lenovo.com/Product/ThinkB … A?tab=spec

Re: fix audio driver

ALC257 is for both the internal and external, either Lenovo is mislabeling them or there is something else wrong with the codec

Re: fix audio driver

The input sources from a PA perspective are not available, but you can technically force that with e.g.

pactl set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_33_00.6 output:analog-surround-40+input:analog-stereo

that should give  you a mic in gnomes software center does that work? Does the mic in general work

arecord -Dhw:1 -r44100 test.wav

and try to play that back work?

Well try following the arecord warning, or alternatively

parec -d alsa_output.pci-0000_03_00.6.analog-stereo --file-format=wav test.wav

Re: fix audio driver

Note that the solution also requires you to add your device to a quirks table and recompile your kernel, as outlined in my later post, and disable ALSA UCM for now. If your device is different from the Slim 7 Pro X, you should also report it upstream so that this gets included in future kernel versions.

Re: fix audio driver

After updating to Linux 6.1, the internal mic just started working.

Re: fix audio driver

I am having the exact same issue I think.

I also tried to see the if there were any message in dmesg for this device with

$ sudo dmesg | grep '\(acp6x\|DMIC\)'

but the there was no output of this command. All this while i was thinking that this ALC285 is my laptop's internal microphone but someone else here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=278886 pointed it out that this may be speakers or jack or hdmi so i was may be barking up the wrong tree this whole time and my internal microphone may not have even loaded up by the kernel I am still not 100% sure that this is the reason for my problem. I created a post for this issue here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=298290. PS my laptop is ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. ROG Zephyrus G14 GA401IHR_GA401IHR

$ uname -a
Linux dusty 6.10.2-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sat, 27 Jul 2024 16:49:55 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

i am even on kernel 6.10 but i think there is no patch for my laptop
