Public bug reported: The internal microphone on this T410 works.
I have a splitter cable in order to use the combo audio jack with a dedicated external microphone. This setup works on a Windows7 installation. When viewing the information in sound settings in xubuntu, I have Internal Microphone Microphone (Unplugged) Dock Microphone (Unplugged) The internal Microphone works as expected, gains controllable. When I select Microphone (Unplugged), with my external microphone connected, I don't appear to get an output. However, if I tap the screen, where the internal Mic is, the volume levels are off the chart. If I unplug the external microphone, the same result can be observed. It appears both 'Internal Mic', and 'Microphone (Unplugged)' are grabbing audio from the same source (The internal microphone), just applying a different gain to it.
