Hello Zachary,

Any luck with this? I am also struggling to get the internal
mic to work on the X1 Carbon 7th Gen. Have gone through
everything discussed here, but still no luck.
My dmesg and mixerctl match those already shared in thread.
Happy to share anything else that might be helpful, but after
reading through the multimedia FAQ and this thread I am
not quite sure where to go next.
No progress here.
I think all needed information is in here.

That part on SST remind me my problem with audio on T590 under Windows.
For at least two patch builds Windows had issue to picking up wrong
driver for audio. Instead of regular HD Audio they were setting
up SST HD Audio and then output/input were not working.
So maybe it is something wrong inside that HW like reporting wrong
capabilities?
Not unlikely as "microphone not working on x1 carbon gen 7" complaints
are all over the place. The solution for ms windows is upgrade + use
newest drivers. So yes, I assume there's something off that has been
fixed in software.
I've seen similar complaints about Dell Laptops that are also using
the Realtek ALC285 chip.
If it's just this one chip, then fine, let's ignore it.
Can someone with a X1 Carbon Gen 8 report it working?
Best Regards,
Stefan
The same issue persists on 8th generation, also reported to dmesg@.
azalia0 at pci0 dev 31 function 3 "Intel 400 Series HD Audio" rev 0x00: msi
azalia0: codecs: Realtek ALC285, Intel/0x280b, using Realtek ALC285
audio0 at azalia0
Also, the mic is enabled in BIOS and kern.audio.record=1.
