Nick Tasios, as per http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/Laptops- and-netbooks/Lenovo-G-Series-laptops/G50-45-Notebook- Lenovo?tabName=Downloads&linkTrack=Mast:SubNav:Support:Drivers%20and%20Software|Drivers%20and%20Software&beta=false an update to your computer's buggy, insecure, and outdated BIOS is available (A2CN38WW). When you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate how does this improve the situation?
For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. Also, you don't have to create a new report. It is most helpful that after the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible: 1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect): sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date 2) Please make a comment specifically advising on how this improves the situation. 3) Please mark this report Status Confirmed. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid.

When I mute one channel, it works (this is not a good workaround since some application, such as Facebook Messenger, unmute both channels and set them to the same level automatically). --- ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: silvana 2681 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: silvana 2681 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: LXDE DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=ed5f69ec-7e3c-40e2-9c00-9b93ff0b463f InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-09-02 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Lubuntu 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160720) MachineType: LENOVO 80E3 Package: linux (not installed) ProcFB: 0 radeondrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-36-generic.efi.signed root=UUID=baa34df9-fd6a-44bd-8c25-64bec78743a2 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-36.55-generic 4.4.16 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-4.4.0-36-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-4.4.0-36-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.157.3 Tags: xenial Uname: Linux 4.4.0-36-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 08/26/2014 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: A2CN25WW(V1.07) dmi.board.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.board.name: Lancer 5B2 dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: SDK0F82993 WIN dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: Lenovo G50-45 dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvrA2CN25WW(V1.07):bd08/26/2014:svnLENOVO:pn80E3:pvrLenovoG50-45:rvnLENOVO:rnLancer5B2:rvrSDK0F82993WIN:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrLenovoG50-45: dmi.product.name: 80E3 dmi.product.version: Lenovo G50-45 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1619866/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
