Unable to make microphone to work on NVIDIA MCP55 onboard sound card

Hello.
Some time ago, I bought a nice HP xw9400 Workstation (with Dual Core AMD Opteron  2216) from Germany. Despite it's starting to become old by today's standards for some stuff like gaming, it's still quite okay to use and the SAS HDD makes it boot fastly. And it has one of the best cases, you can plug PCI/PCIe/PCI-X cards very easily and it's very nice to change or add HDDs. Maybe I'll upgrade the CPUs (I can upgrade the bios and it seems it can support better CPUs) if I find them on eBay or other place.
I have less problems with Arch than the rest of distributions, but I still have weird issues. Despite my computer hardware is somewhat old, I still experience weird problems everywhere (it seems I have some kind of weird "luck").
I have problems using my microphone under Arch with "NVIDIA Corporation MCP55 High Definition Audio (rev a2)" onboard sound card , here is the relevant info.

I had an Sound Blaster Audigy 4 Pro, but removed it to see if there was some problem. I'm still unable to use my Microphone even on onboard audio hardware. I'll try to use it once I have the microphone working

Sorry, that was wrong, I meant
arecord -l
Have you tried making a virtual loopback device like above and using
arecord -vv -fdat out.wav
You should see the #### fluctuate as you speak into the mic. If not, then unmute and turn up your mic in alsamixer. That loopback device will allow you to capture your sound card and hear it at the same time. Another way to do it is to use a jumper from line out to line in on your sound device. You won't be able to hear it while you record though.
If your sound device works, then you can capture what's going through it. You'll need to determine which vitual device your mic is.
Example
arecord -l

    When I then - after reboot - play music, It works only on the two front-speakers. All other speakers - rear and center - are dead.
    But when I invoke speaker-test with

    2 - Rear Left
    5 - LFE
    Time per period = 14.569581
    all speakers make a noise when they are shown during the test correctly.
    In the wiki, I tried some examples on the configuration of ~/.asoundrc as described, but none of them worked - everything I specify there is effectles, even after reboot.
    What I've tried so far in ~/.asoundrc (without success):
    pcm.dsp {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "dmix"
    pcm.upmix51 {
    type upmix
    slave.pcm "surround51"
    delay 15
    channels 6
    pcm.!default "plug:upmix51"
    pcm.upmix71 {
    type upmix
    slave.pcm "surround71"
    delay 15
    channels 8
    pcm.!default "plug:upmix71"
    pcm.dmix6 {
    type asym
    playback.pcm {
    type dmix
    ipc_key 567829
    slave {
    pcm "hw:0,0"
    channels 6
    pcm.!default "plug:dmix6"
    So what am I doing wrong?

    Hello there!
    In the german forum, I found some more help.
    This configuration now got 5.1 sound mixing to work via ALSA (without using PulseAudio).
    $ cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
    options snd_hda_intel index=-2
    options snd_usb_audio index=-1
    $ cat /etc/asound.conf
    pcm.!default

    But this doesn't solve all my problems.
    I'm still searching for a way of how to use the internal intel sound card as default PCM device if the USB sound is unplugged or not available during boot.
    Any ideas?

  • Microphone calibratrion for dB reading from pc sound card?

    We are trying to acquire a sound signal from a regular laptop sound card into labview, and obtain a sound intensity reading and a frequency reading. Through FFT we are able to acquire the strongest signal, but the dB readings are all over the map. Using a sound generator we were able to conclude the frequency readings were indeed correct, but the sound intensity was way off, and non-repeatable. So what I'm looking to know is if it is possible to calibrate the mic within labview or to read in a sound level measurement in dB with a regular PC mic and sound card. Even if it was a gain measurement, how do set the baseline for 0 dB? Please help!
    thanks

    A computer sound card is simply a low cost audio input/output. Low cost means that it has usually no calibration options at all, and even if it had, Windows would not know how to access it and even less so allow an application to use it through a known API.
    So you have to do your calibration yourself in software. The way that works is to apply a known signal, measure the sound signal in Volts and then calculate a calibrarion function that translates those Volt into the dB you know you have applied. Additional problems could be that the analog path on your sound card is good enough for the human ear, but totally useless for measurement purposes, since the amplifier transfer function is anything but constant over the frequency range. Also sound measurements with cheap microphones is another big problem, since those microphones are at best a guessimator, but no accurate measurement device.
    Basically you have to do the calibration repeatedly at the same frequency and also at various frequencies too, in order to see if the microhone is actually useful at all (repeatability of calibration value at the same frequency), as well as reasonaby constant over the frequency range for both the mic and the sound card.
    With most standard sound cards none of this is a given, and unless you also use a really good microphone, even the most accurate sound card can't do much for you.

    If you purchased an unlocked iPhone at an Apple store, it should be useable with any SIM.  Its possible they just made a mistake and gave you the wrong model phone or there is something wrong with that phone.  If that is the case, just take the phone and your receipt to an Apple store, explain the situation and they should swap it out for an actual unlocked one.

  • Microphone Not Working at a

    I just installed and updated my SB Li've 24-bit card. It is runnig the most recent driver the site has to offer. Now, when I try to use my microphone, I get absolutely nothing from it. No sound, no sputter, nothing. It was working perfectly on my onboard sound card with no issues. I have muted, Unmuted, Selected, Unselected, and tried just about every combination I can think of. I have Disabled my onboard card via my bios. Any and all help is much appreciated, and warmly welcomed! Thanks!

    I have a similar problem which is quite annoying.
    It's about the option to enable the lineIn2/Mic2 of the frontpanel of my Fatalty while playing in game-mode.
    In record-mode i tried to get a signal of my mic through the line2/mic2 input and it worked nicely. But when i switch to game-mode only the lineIn/Mic Input of the soundcard seems to work.
    I tried to swich the recording input by selecting Line2/Mic2 via the Windows that pops up after selecting the game-mode, but still the signal won't come through.
    I think there is just some settings to be changed because the mic works properly and the drivers are fine ... otherwise it wouldn't have worked during record-mode.
    is there anybody that could help me finding the right setting?

    The sound meter doesn't move at all, it worked until i updated the Windows and after the update was applied it did not work anymore. i uninstalled the sound card driver and installed it again, and it did not work the speakers work but the mic didnt work, i can not use the mic in skype or any app/program that uses the mic.
    Thanks.

    Hi Gogox1,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    As per the query we understood that you are facing issues with microphone not working on your Lenovo  Y50-70 laptop.
    Please try connecting an external microphone and check for the issue, try to update the drivers from device manager.
    a) Press“Windows Logo” + “X”keys on the keyboard.
    b)Click on “Device Manager”.
    c)Search for the Sound Card from the device list and right click on it and select “Update Driver Software”.
    d)Follow the on-screen instructions and complete the installation of the latest driver.

  • Kt3 ultra onboard sound microphone fix

    Was there ever a fix for the kt3 onboard sound microphone problem. I have trawled through the forums for an hour now and all I can find is complaints and no fixes?
    Can someone point me in the direction of the fix if there is one!
    cheers gazrat

    Thanks for the speedy reply guys.
    What the question initially intended to ask was if
    the onboard sound card allowed me to play games
    with full surround sound support using eax/dolby.
    I assume the answer to this question is no.
    With regards to playing DVDs, yes I can get the 6
    channel sound, and the speaker test in the tray
    confirms this.
    But as I don't really watch DVDs on my computer,
    and use it more for games and work, I assume I
    have to get a SB Live or some sort to actually get
    eax/dolby support within games. Is this correct?

    I am unable to get my bluetooth working on my phone. the message says "make sure car mutli media is in range" how do I get connected and what does that mean?

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    i found a solution for this issue when google maps shows you an empty map error message cannot reach server. Click on  the icon next to search and you are supposed to be presented with your profile, if not u will have an empty space. click on that space, then the "gear " Icon and logout.
    restart your iphone then strat google maps again and log back in.
    apparently this is happening when you change your google acount password or enble or disable 2 step verification.

  • TS4079 Siri used to work fine when making mobile calls in Ecuador until yesterday, when the administration of Ecuador added an aditional number in all mobile numbers existing in Ecuador. Since then Siri is unable to make any mobile calls with any new numb

    Siri used to work fine when making mobile calls in Ecuador until yesterday, when the administration of Ecuador added an aditional number in all mobile numbers existing in Ecuador. Since then Siri is unable to make any mobile calls with any new number.Help
    I`ve tried restarting, rebooting, nothing works.
    The interesting thing is that SIRI can call to previous mobile numbers (without the new digit) obviously not connecting , and, can call to any other numbers as an office or home number. So the problem is the new digit in the mobile number

    Ecuador has added an extra digit to mobile phone numbers but apple wont accept 10 digit phone numbers so we cant use facetime or apple IM or verify our new phone numbers. ( and Siri won't work either!) I have contacted apple support online but can't request a call back as the apple system says our new phone numbers are invalid. I am going to phone them tomorrow and you should complain too at http://www.apple.com/support/contact/.  . The more people that bring this to their attention the faster it will get fixed

  • After upgrading to IOS8.1 my microphone stopped working. cannot make a call, cannot record a voice memo, but Siri works !!!

    after upgrading to IOS8.1 my microphone stopped working. cannot make a call, cannot record a voice memo, but Siri works !!! Surely this must be software since I presume there are not two microphones, one for Siri and one for everything else. Tried resetting, rebooting, switching off noise cancelling. What else is there?

  • After years without a problem, I am suddenly unable to remote share my work computer at home.  I haven't done any updates recently and did not make any changes.  Anyone have any thoughts?

    After years without a problem, I am suddenly unable to remote share my work computer at home.  I haven't done any updates recently and did not make any changes to the setup.  It was working Monday night and stopped working Tuesday morning.  I am at a loss for what could have happened.   Anyone have any thoughts?

    it sounds like your work changed something on their network.  Try asking your IT people if they recently blocked any ports related to remote management or changed their firewall settings to block incoming connections.

    Sometimes and this is network dependant if they suspect the phone to be lost or stolen as in this case with change of Sim card and provider then the origonal network can and some will block the phone untill you have rang them and proven it's not the case or if you have bough this 2nd hand then the origonal seller may have stopped paying the contract bill and thus the phone is blocked
