i discovered something potentially interesting. With Pulseaudio running, I get the "low mic volume" problem described in this bug. If I kill pulse, and set the "Sound capture" setting in gnome-sound-properties to "HDA Intel STAC92xx Analog (ALSA)" I still have the low volume problem.

However, if I (with Pulseaudio not running) change the "Sound capture" setting to "ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture" I *can* record at a reasonable volume using gnome-sound-recorder.

Maybe the problem is that Pulseaudio latches on to the wrong device for recording?
