Subject: [Intel HDA][ALC3226] Too much white noise from microphone
Date: Wed, 04 Feb 2015 16:13:08 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8841801.KiuVFG1hDJ@segfault> (raw)

Hello ALSA devs,

I spoke to patrakov on Freenode from the #Alsa IRC channel and they mentioned that 
the noise background I am experiencing is not normal. I tried two different headsets, 
both headsets have two separate jacks, the same result.

I will test any patches/quirks for kernel as needed.

Here is the alsa-info:
