Description Klaas Vantournhout 2011-05-04 06:39:20 UTC

Description of problem:
I have an internal microphone which I like to use with Skype. The problem, however, is that since my F14->F15 upgrade by means of yum, the volume settings of the internal microphone have been set to zero.

output amixer -Dhw
<snip>
Simple mixer control 'Internal Mic',0
  Capabilities: volume pswitch penum
  Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
  Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
  Limits: 0 - 80                                                                                                                                      
  Front Left: 0 [0%] [-74.00dB] Playback [on]                                                                                                         
  Front Right: 0 [0%] [-74.00dB] Playback [on]
</snip>

I can change the volume with alsamixer, however when I try to save it with "alsactl store" as root, the settings are back to zero after reboot.

I think this is specific to this one internal microphone.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 16:34:08 UTC

This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
