Microphone does not react to sound (but is detected and looks okay)
- PipeWire version:
pipewire Compiled with libpipewire 0.3.56 Linked with libpipewire 0.3.56
- Distribution and distribution version: Fedora Linux 36 (Workstation Edition)
- Desktop Environment: Plasma + i3
- Kernel version: 5.18.15-lqx2.0.fc36.x86_64
Description of Problem:
Works with PulseAudio, so a PipeWire-specific problem.
Opening pavucontrol
and going to "Input Device" would reveal a "Internal Microphone". It has a noise-slider below, which wobbles, as if it detects a micro noise. But then, if you start making actual noise, that slider won't react to it at all.
Needless to say, Skype detects no sound as well.
Workaround: going back to PulseAudio makes it work.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Open
pavucontrol
and go to "Input Device" tab - Start watching the noise-slider, which wobbles a bit
- Make noise by clapping your hands
Actual Results:
The slider will remain low as if nothing happening
Expected Results:
The slider would go up as you making noise
