Mic not automatically recognized on laptop about whisper_mic

[nn81]

To solve this situation I've attached a USB microphone and then worked great, albeit still with the same error message.

Just seems unable to get it directly from the laptop microphone. Other than that, excellent work.

Yes, the message occurs even when working. I was not aware built-in mics would not work. Perhaps the threshold just needs to be lowered?

I've tested with headphone mics, a dedicated microphone and finally a conference room mic/speaker.

The conference room one works best for this purpose, but no internal mic yet on Linux (Mint 20). Anyways, not a big deal.

Unfortunately it fails to detect built-in mic on Ubuntu 22.04 Mate.

        Say something!

There is no response.
