 +=====PA and mic issues=====
 +If you want to record using a normal mic, without using any suspender command, PA will be active and not give control to "arecord" which is a non-PA sound app unless you close down pavucontrol and paprefs and exit any pulseaudio command. Then you wait for the suspend module to work.
 +
 +But before closing down pavucontrol, you may want predict if you sound mic is working without recording. Strange I know but easier to show image.

 +
 +Now I have deliberately shown a naughty image. I have raised volumes higher than my hardware can do. This proves PA is a post-processor and is a warning do not have volumes set this high....you will have distortion.
 +
 +Now I reset the volume for me around 80%
 +
 +Now if your voice on playback has sufficient volume then one issue is resolved. But you can have machine hum. This may be easy to resolve by having your mic input as far away as possible from any fan noise. (B) If you can, consider reducing any fan speeds on your pc.
