@slamdunk:

Please try the following approach:
1. open pulseaudio sound preferences (I use the gnome applet)
2. open the "input" tab
3. in a terminal start "alsamixer -V=all"
4. move to "Input Source [Mic]" with "cursor right" and switch to "Digital" 
with "cursor up" or "cursor down"
5. check whether your mic works using the volume meter in the pulseaudio sound 
preferences

I have to do this each time I boot my Dell laptop since I didn't yet
find a better solution. Obviously pulseaudio doesn't offer to select the
digital mic as input source although alsa knows it. Any idea whether it
is a software bug or which config file has to be changed?
