Recently, I began trying to use the rear microphone jack on my K3 with my Yamaha boom mike, instead of using a stand-alone USB sound card and feeding the signal to the LIN IN jack.  This worked fine for a couple of weeks, but today when I tried it, I got very loud white noise driving my radio and amp essentially to full scale. I have MIC SEL set to RPH BIAS, which has worked in the past. Any MIC gain setting over 7 drives the amp to full output.  When I pull the mike plug out of the jack, the problem goes away.

Have I inadvertently messed up another setting, or perhaps a failure in the mike?
