I got a new windows based laptop and decided to install Mint (Mint 21.2 Cinnamon) on it. This laptop comes with a microphone array around its camera.
I got most of the hardware to work including built-in speakers, so some parts of the audio drivers are working.
The only thing is that the microphone array does not work... Mint cannot detect the microphone array or any other microphone connected to the side jack.
The array works fine when booting with Windows.
Where else should I look to resolve this?
