Vitaly Volkov, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/X550LB/HelpDesk_Download/ an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (403). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
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. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status Confirmed. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-403 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1404929 Title: Microphone does not work on ASUS X550LB Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Microphone does not work at all on ubuntu 14.04 (Asus X550LB) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: linux-image-3.13.0-43-generic 3.13.0-43.72 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-43.72-generic 3.13.11.11 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-43-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.6 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: vitaly 2196 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: vitaly 2196 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/pcmC1D0p: vitaly 2196 F...m pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Mon Dec 22 18:16:22 2014 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=2d352388-b48b-4314-abe0-5ca65da0521d InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-11-15 (36 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 14.04.1 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140723) MachineType: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
