After a regular system update the internal laptop microphone disappeared from sound applet on KDE and pavucontrol.

@jasonp: Thanks for the report!

I'm not 100% sure, but this might be a duplicate of  FS#71175 .
Please check whether the proposed fix [1] works for you.

Not really, same problem with alsa-utils 1.2.5-3

alsactl[778]: alsa-lib parser.c:242:(error_node) UCM is not supported for this HDA model (HD-Audio Generic at 0xfd3c8000 irq 108)
alsactl[778]: alsa-lib main.c:1402:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:0 use case configuration -6
alsactl[778]: alsa-lib parser.c:242:(error_node) UCM is not supported for this HDA model (HD-Audio Generic at 0xfd3c0000 irq 109)
alsactl[778]: alsa-lib main.c:1402:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:1 use case configuration -6

I've checked active profiles on pavucontrol. There are two devices:
- HD-Audio Generic (HDMI)
- Family 17h (Model 10h-1fh) HD Audio Controller

Last one is supposed to have the mic I think, but for some reason only allows Stereo Analog Output (Stereo Analog Input and Stereo Analog Duplex both say disconnected). Moreover, alsactl errors above are related to the other device. Could it be happening that MIC appears to be connected where is not?
Comment by Leif (Gnatzelle) - Tuesday, 08 June 2021, 20:43 GMT
Same "Problems" here...the same alsactl errors, but all devices are functioning normally.

alsa-lib main.c:1404:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:0 use case configuration -2
alsa-lib parser.c:242:(error_node) UCM is not supported for this HDA model (HDA NVidia at 0xfc080000 irq 65)
alsa-lib main.c:1404:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:1 use case configuration -6
alsa-lib parser.c:242:(error_node) UCM is not supported for this HDA model (HD-Audio Generic at 0xfc400000 irq 67)
alsa-lib main.c:1404:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:2 use case configuration -6
alsa-lib main.c:1404:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:3 use case configuration -2

(GTX 1080 and Realtek ALC1220 onBoard. hw2 and 3 are loopback devices from v4l2loopback (Iriun Webcam) )

At least the coredumps are gone ^^"

We have a workaround: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1977151#p1977151

Next release will pick it up. It seems there will be one soon: https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-ucm-conf/issues/95#issuecomment-852075695
Comment by David Runge (dvzrv) - Thursday, 10 June 2021, 10:32 GMT
@jasonp: Thanks for the investigation!

The amount of patches required for 1.2.5 is baffling by now and there are so many different things broken...
It is also unclear when exactly upstream will issue the next release.

I'll apply that patch for alsa-ucm-conf in the hopes that it will fix the issue at hand. Please check whether alsa-ucm-conf 1.2.5-2 fixes your issue.
Comment by Jason P. (jasonp) - Thursday, 10 June 2021, 10:44 GMT
That was fast! Thanks :)

It works with the caveats already mentioned here and in the forum post:

- LED always ON but toggles MUTED/UNMUTED states
- Still errors during boot (reported above)

Do you think it's worthwhile to not close the bug until those two things are fixed?
Comment by David Runge (dvzrv) - Thursday, 10 June 2021, 10:58 GMT
@jasonp: I believe the two outstanding regressions with the applied fix should be reported upstream.

It is not unlikely that some fix to alsa-lib fixed those in the meantime, but it's really hard for me to tell.
Comment by Jason P. (jasonp) - Thursday, 10 June 2021, 11:01 GMT
Yep, you're probably right and we also have the forum thread to gather progress on this.

Close it if you feel like it.

Thanks!

edit: my case might be unrelated after all, started different bug, leaving link here just in case it is https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/71709


Got hit by same issue, i created forum topic with temp fix, in my case it was sound card sound blaster z
fixed by manually running `alsactl restore` after logging in... i got it after recent update. (did yesterday, i think previous full os update was few days ago).

I went with forum post before I realized it's the same bug, there's more details inside.

same problem here (microphone disappeared) on t14 gen2i after upgrade alsa-ucm-conf from 1.2.5.1-1 to 1.2.6.1-1
Comment by David Runge (dvzrv) - Friday, 10 December 2021, 20:54 GMT
A set of missing directories and symlinks are finally installed with 1.2.6.2-2 and in consequence should also be fixing this issue I believe.
