I have struggled for days to have my internal mic working, everything else worked (external mic, audio, HDMI audio) though. I have a Lenovo x201 with Conexant CX20585 (learned it from cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec Can I use my headphone microphone? I am having beats headphones.Įven Now My system sound OUTPUT connector option is gone here is the screen shot It's freaking me out and my microphone problem is after 12.04.

Suddenly no sound in skype
