[Bug 275998] Re: internal mic capture very low volume when routed through pulseaudio

[Josh Derr]

Ok, so since upgrading to 8.10 I have no sound from the built-in mic on
my XPS m1330. Skype, gnome-sound-recorder et al would just record dead
air. This even I was able to get it working. I went to Volume Control ->
preferences and enabled Digital Input Source (towards the end, for the
Options section). Back in Volume Control -> Options, Digital Input
Source was set to Analog inputs. Changing it to Digital Mic 1 has gotten
my recording working again. Setting Skype to use Pulse for sound input
and output works as well. Sound from the built-in microphone is still
somewhat low, but not unusable. In fact, I think it was about the same
level as 8.04

After reading through some of the other comments, this makes me think
either a) Intrepid defaults to the wrong mic inputs or b) my no audio is
a different issue from the extremely low audio reported by other users.
