@David. Thanks, I'd like to point out the bug discussed in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-backports-modules-2.6.32/+bug/590756 . Its the same problem, internal mic on 0x1a on conexant 20585. According to kayno, he got it working using either hda-analyzer or compiling the latest alsa driver from source. It didnt work for me , still might be worth you checking that out.
