In any case, I have a X1 Yoga Gen 6, which is (apart from the screen and chasis) equivalent to the X1 Carbon Gen 9 (with an Intel Gen 11), and I have no issues with the mic or the speakers. Everything works out of the box, but I'm using pipewire.
Would you consider trying pipewire or is it a no go for you?
As far as I'm aware, Pipewire sits on top of ALSA. So in your case I'd expect just ALSA to work as well. Maybe you could test...
What do you want me to try? I'm not an expert and I never looked into too much detail about this. Pipewire simply works for me. For example, running `arecord --duration=5 --format=dat test-mic.wav` doesn't work but selecting pipewire with flag -D does the trick `arecord -D pipewire -- duration=5 --format=dat test-mic.wav` Also, double check that the microphone is not disabled by the laptop (Fn + F4), although the led makes it easy to spot. And in alsamixer the word "Capture" dissapears if the mic is disabled. Btw, I don't have any custom files in /etc/modprobe.d/ regarding audio. -- Iyán Méndez Veiga GPG: 0x422E3694311E5AC1
