[SOLVED] Internal microphone in laptop is not working
Hello, I installed Arch on my laptop and even though I managed to get my sound output to work, the input is not working. GNOME's sound settings says: Input device: No input devices and pavucontrol says: Port: Microphone (unplugged). I use pipewire btw.
I tried:
pactl set-source-port alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo analog-input-mic And also restarting the pipewire and pipewire-pulse service.
Here are some outputs:
pactl list sources (I included only the mic):

Subdevice #0: subdevice #0EDIT: I found another issue - if I use the pavucontrol profile Pro Audio - the one, where the microphone is recognized, only one output works - if I have headphones, the speakers are muted in the alsamixer, so when I unplug headphones, the speakers do not work. If I unmute the speakers, then only speakers work and even if I plug the headphones, that are not muted, only speakers work until I manually mute them again. The speakers/headphone change work automatically when I used profile Analog Stereo Duplex, but this is the one where the microphone is not recognized.

Re: [SOLVED] Internal microphone in laptop is not working
Progress: I found out that while being on Analog Stereo Duplex and GNOME settings showing No input devices my microphone actually captures the output of my laptop (and no, it is not from the speakers/headphones since I lowered the volume to 0) instead of my voice. I verified it by using arecord and also on discord/LOL voice chat. So my current issue is how to change it so the input actually works as an input.

pactl list source-outputsduring a recording attempt. Does
arecord -Dhw:0 test.wavwork?
"sound from my laptop" could just be the monitor source rather than an actual microphone recording (whether you put general volume to zero is irrelevant, the monitor source would be independent of that)

I started recording using

Re: [SOLVED] Internal microphone in laptop is not working
I changed:
arecord -Dhw:0 test.wavTo:
arecord -Dhw:0 -f S32_LE -c 2 test.wav and it returns:
Warning: rate is not accurate (requested = 8000Hz, got = 44100Hz)
please, try the plug plugin
Recording WAVE 'test.wav' : Signed 32 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, StereoBut it does not record anything, it only creates the .wav file.
arecord -vvv -f cd test.wav at least records the output.

Re: [SOLVED] Internal microphone in laptop is not working
Which? The one from your sound card? That arecord will go via pipewire and is on the monitoring sink as suspected. With that actively running, what happens if you move the sink to your actual mic source? E.g. in this example
pactl move-source-output 2209 1674the numbers here are dynamic double check the numbers with list-source-outputs and list-sources respectively.
That said if none of these arecord invocations work then your mic doesn't work on a kernel/driver level. Something I'm just noticing: " even though I managed to get my sound output to work" -- what exactly does that mean? If you made a modprobe file with dmic_detect=0 guess what the dmic_detect you're disabling stands for -- same deal, but less immediately obvious for snd-intel-dspcfg dsp_driver
should that be the case, revert that, and install sof-firmware instead and reboot.
Also maybe in any case so we know what's actually going on

You were right, I indeed had
options snd-hda-intel dmic_detect=0
options snd-hda-intel model=auto in my modprobe and installing sof-firmware fixed the issue. Thank you very much for help!
