Sound playback works but internal microphone is not detected and I need it for work. I found a few posts that look similar, but most are pre-pipewire and I’m hoping it’s simpler than this because I don’t understand what to change on the recompile in that post.
System info
Kernel: 6.6.41-1-MANJARO
sof-firmware: 2024.06-1
inxi -Fxxz | grep Audio
Audio:
Device-1: AMD Rembrandt Radeon High Definition Audio
Device-2: AMD ACP/ACP3X/ACP6x Audio Coprocessor
Device-3: AMD Family 17h/19h HD Audio vendor: Acer Incorporated ALI
I believe Device-2 is the mic. Driver is snd_pci_acp6x
