Low volume since linux 3.19

Low volume since linux 3.19

[Jan Hinnerk Stosch]

Hi,

I hope this is the right place to report my issue!?
Since linux 3.19 I have very low volume on my Fujitsu E753 headphone
even on highest volume level.
As I don't have much experience with audio configuration and it worked
before I did a kernel bisect and found out, that commit
"03ad6a8c93b6df2d65c305b5b5f9474068b45bfb" is "responsible" for this.
Is there something that I have to change in my configuration? Or do
you need some further information?
Here is some output from dmesg:
[    5.853009] sound hdaudioC0D0: ALC269VB: SKU not ready 0x909701f0

Please take alsa-info.sh outputs before and after the patch.  Run the
script with --no-upload option, and attach two output files.  (Maybe
better to compress when attaching.)

The commit does basically only renaming some control elements.
Possibly some volumes are set lower than before now.


thanks,

Takashi

Thx for your quick reply.
I ran the script with linux 3.18.6 and 3.19.2 and attached the output
in compressed form.

I guess running the following once should recover:
   % amixer -c0 set k 'Speaker+LO' 0dB

But still the question is who lowered it.  Which PulseAudio version
are you running?

Yes, it works (only until next reboot). I assume the "k" after "set"
was a typo. I ran
% amixer amixer -c0 set 'Speaker+LO' 0dB

I have pulseaudio version 6.0

Re: Low volume since linux 3.19

[Jan Hinnerk Stosch]

Hi,

a few weeks ago you wrote a patch for a lifebook T731 which fixed some
wrong BIOS configuration concerning the headphone pin.
A tried the patch with my Lifebook E753 and it worked. The Speaker+LO
setting is gone. In alsamixer only 'Speaker' and 'Headphone' remain.
'Speaker' is muted when I plug in a headphone.
So if I don't get something wrong this is the same issue!?
If it is and you don't mind, would you add the following quirk-patch?

diff --git a/sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c b/sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c

The very same fix was already queued in my tree (but for E752).
It'll be included in the next pull request to Linus, so likely in
4.1-rc4 or rc5.
