Public bug reported: The microphone on my DELL Precision 5690 doesn't work after upgrading to the Linux image 6.11.0-17 from 6.8.0.52 - Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS.
When I go to the audio panel, the microphone seems to be receiving a saturated signal, and it continuously fluctuates (see video). When I record, I hear a crackling sound. This is not the first time this issue has occurred; it happens with every new kernel since at least the kernel 6.8.0.41. I tried purging and reinstalling PulseAudio, PipeWire, linux-firmware, and ubuntu-drivers-common, but it didn't solve the problem. I am unable to install sof-soundwire. $ lspci | grep -i audio 00:1f.3 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation Meteor Lake-P HD Audio Controller (rev 20) 01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation Device 22be (rev a1) $ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [NVidia ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia HDA NVidia at 0x7d000000 irq 17 1 [sofsoundwire ]: sof-soundwire - sof-soundwire DellInc.-Precision5690--02RYDD ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 24.04 Package: pulseaudio 1:16.1+dfsg1-2ubuntu10.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 6.11.0-17.17~24.04.2-generic 6.11.11 Uname: Linux 6.11.0-17-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.28.1-0ubuntu3.3 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/seq: glion 3136 F.... pipewire /dev/snd/controlC0: glion 3139 F.... wireplumber /dev/snd/controlC1: glion 3136 F.... pipewire glion 3139 F.... wireplumber CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Tue Feb 18 23:50:51 2025 InstallationDate: Installed on 2025-01-03 (46 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS "Noble Numbat" - Release amd64 (20240827.1) MachineType: Dell Inc.
