Dear Maintainer,
I am running Debian Jessie on a MacBook Pro Retina 13" from 2103. Audio works fine except for microphone input, which always stays silent, regardless of mu
ting/unmuting or volume settings or fiddling with alsamixer.
The pavucontrol vumeter for Input Devices > Built-in Audio Analog Stereo > Port:Internal Microphone stays in a zero state.
Alsamixer shows two Microphone capture devices ("Internal Microphone" and "Internal Microphone 1") while pavucontrol shows one stereo device. When I press
space on "Internal microphone 1", the input in pavucontrol appears muted. When I unmute it, the volume meter is at 100% for a fraction of a second and then
goes down to zero. If I record directly after switching to "Internal Microphone 1", only a single "plop" noise is recorded and then silence. This does not
happen for "Internal Microphone" where only silence is recorded.
I would expect to see a working volume meter when enabling the microphone in pavucontrol and to have working audio recording in client tools such as audaci
ty.
Thanks for looking into this or pointing to a more appropriate bug reporting place,
Cheers,
Lukas F. Hartmann (mntmn)
