PinePhone Pro (bought Sunday 2-7-2023, order completed 5-7, shipped 6-7, received in Brussels Monday 11-7-2023).
Mobian (weekly) mobian-pinephonepro-phosh-20230709.img.
I called my daughter who said hearing me very low, nearly not understandable. The incoming sound of her voice was perfect.
I read somewhere about using alsamixer, which I did. As a result, receiving a call, no sound at all (in and out).
I could not find a better way to revert the changes than reinstalling, this time mobian-pinephonepro-phosh-20230606.img.
Same situation calling my daughter. I asked her to call me. Same problem with an incoming call: good voice from the other side, very weak from my side.
But there is some outgoing sound at least. (Answer to question 1: yes, but not satisfactorily.) How could I improve the sound from the microphone (in phone call mode) without breaking everything?
Fast fix is this:
https://gitlab.com/pine64-org/pine64-als...-/issues/5
After that change and reboot you will have decent mic out and no-one will not complain.
But unfortunately that is not enough in all scenarios:

And regarding to that second issue there is also "third" big issue which is related how callaudiod will handle microphone changes when you toggle speaker on (and off). I wrote something about that in that issue comments but I am not sure where that is coming from - is it ucm files or callaudiod or maybe modem?
I am trying to understand it and trying to make some solution what works but I am not best (or even good) person to do this so don't expect anything happen soon
