This is a Windows related bug documented by Texas Instruments on their Rev B versions of the PCM29xx USB Sound CODEC. TI has fixed this issue in PCM29xxC. and later revisions. On the K3S we are using PCM2901E revision (newer than C). It does not have this problem. TI's Application Note

Joe, You are correct when the input device has been enumerated as a microphone input, which is the bug. Without clearing the bug forcing windows to enumerate it as a line in device, 100 on the slider is indeed adding gain. However after clearing the bug, it's now enumerated as a line in device
