If it may help others: I added
set-source-volume 1 17
to my /etc/pulse/default.pa, so I don't have to reset the volume every time I
log on.
(And also remember to unset the let Skype control volume automatically option)
I am using Lucid and I have Dell M1530.
When volume of microphone is set to 100% it is almost inaudible.
gnome-volume-control let me rise the volume up to 150% which is still not
enough.
With paman (PulseAudio Manager) I can rise it up to 480%. 200% is fine.

@talent03: I tried installing a fresh Jaunty and upgrading the kernel to

It might be something to do with your /etc/asound.state file, which I
