How do I install my microphone?
My microphone doesn't work in Ubuntu. I have a Dell Studio XPS 16 laptop.
What are the steps to install microphone support?
Solution 1:
It's installed, it's just a mixer issue. To fix:
- Run
alsamixer - Set "Digital Input" option to "Digital Mic"

Solution 2:
@Oli was right it was just a mixer issue. For some reason, my internal microphone was set on "mute" by default.
I fixed it by going in "gnome-volume-control", "Input" tab and unchecking "mute".
