My microphone cannot work
Hello, I am using archlinux with bspwm. I have already installed pulseaudio and alsa before posting the topic. The trouble is that the output is normal but I can't find the input device. So when I use zoom, I can't speak unfortunatelly. The pavucontrol cannot find the input device. I'm using Lenovo Xiaoxin Pro 16 2021 UHD now. Please help me! Thanks a lot!

Re: My microphone cannot work
You need to actually select a profile that exposes the mic, look at the configuration tab in pavucontrol or run

Yes, it works partly. The input device has appeared in the pavucontrol, but it seems that I still can't record my voice. No matter in Zoom or in obs-studio, the microphone can't work anymore.

pacmd list-sources
pacmd list-source-outputsdoes the mic actually work, have you tested it on another system/OS? Does the mic have a physical mute switch that isn't propagated to the OS?
