A Friend of mine experienced the exact same problem on a different
Laptop, and there are several reports about similar problems on the
alsa-user Mailinglist. Therefore I doubt that it is a hardware
problem. Also, according to a my friend, this functionality works on
Windows, which further proves the suspicion that it is a software
Problem.
