    Hi,
    My R3 Audio input(internal microphone) is not working,
    I looked through posts, and tried to solve it,
    it is not related with fn+f9, and it default is set on microphone array.
    Reinstalled IDT.
    Please help.

    I had this problem earlier today.

    The on-board microphone doesn't seem to work with the camera disabled. Did enabling the camera work?
