I just installed the alsa 1.0.20 driver on Jaunty and I now have a
digital microphone control again that actually works (at least in gnome-
sound-recorder - haven't tried Skype yet). Admittedly, I did it on the
weekly vanilla kernel build 2.6.30.rc3, but presumably it works with the
stock standard Jaunty kernel.

In case anyone else wants to try it, there are sample bash scripts to
download and build the drivers, eg at
http://www.antonywilliams.com/2007/10/bash-script-to-automate-compiling-
alsa.html, but note that you need to change it to get alsa 1.0.20 as the
example script is for 1.0.15. If you scroll down someone has posted a
mod that just downloads the latest alsa. Also, you need to change the
target folder for Jaunty's snd-hda-intel.ko in the alsa_2 script because
the sample script is for Gutsy. Instead, it should be:

cp -v /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko
