Thanks for the report Benjamin. Just so that I understand correctly,
even after killing and restarting pulseaudio, the microphone won't
register sound until the machine is rebooted?

Title:
When sound breaks (bug #1950533), sound input device breaks worse.
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
What I expect to happen: I can use my USB webcam mic when an important
remote meeting takes place.
What happens instead: After triggering bug #1950533, microphone is
present in Gnome sound settings and pavucontrol, but registers no
sound, until I reboot and plug the webcam into a different USB port.
For a few months (and before I knew how to address the issue), the
only way I knew this had occurred was by entering a Zoom meeting and
being unable to communicate.
I was not able to replicate the issue on the installation with which I
reported
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1950533
so I filed this part of the bug using ubuntu-bug separately.
