[Bug 534384] [NEW] microphone not working properly in my Acer Aspire 5720

[Tommy Prevatt]

Public bug reported:

It will record with the right settings, but it sounds choppy and you can
barely hear it. I have tested it with 'pavumeter --record' and through
the sound test in Skype. I have to turn the internal mic boost all the
way up in 'alsamixer -c n' and then turm the volume all the way up on my
machine to hear the playback, and then you barely hear it.
