My laptop is Lenovo X1 Carbon Gen 7, which has a built-in microphone. The microphone is Microphone Array (Intel Smart Sound Technology (Intel SST)) with driver version 10.0.22000.1 (2021-06-05). It works well in Windows 10.
After upgrading to Windows 11, the microphone takes almost no sound input: not working to me.
In the Sound test section of the microphone show the input volume is only 4%:
This issue has been reported in Lenovo community, but the experts said that it's Microsoft driver, not Lenovo's:

Same issue here with my laptop!
I just went back to windows 10 and that fixed the problem.
Any solutions found? My ThinkPad T14s also encounters the same issue.
