Summary:                    Mic boost boosts mic playback and not recording
Description: 
I've tried to record my voice with broadcast2000. The recording level is at
-30db (maybe 2db louder than without mic boost) while mic playback seems
to be boosted up by 500% to an audiable level.

Same thing here. Mic boost switch works only on monitoring, not recording
level, so mic input is unusable with standard mics. 

Alsa 1.0.4 (from sources) on vanilla 2.6.5 linux kernel.
CMI8738-MC6 chipset with cmipci driver.

well, unfortunately i can't find any relevant other register
bits for the mic boost...

Mic boost for recording isn't a hardware feature? Well, then we need a
dirty workaround anywhere in the alsa/oss-library or something similar
(feature request) to boost the volume of recorded sounds afterwards.
At the moment this card is unusable for mics.

Don't know whether it's useful to ask c-media for some information.

i have no idea unless the datasheet provides no information about it...

yes, please ask c-media.  i've got no response from them, but more
inquires may hit more frequently :)

Same thing here with a 0000:00:0c.0 Multimedia audio controller: C-Media
Electronics Inc CM8738 (rev 10) and kernel 2.6.7 (gentoo-dev-sources). The
mic boost is absolutely neccessary for netmeeting/teamspeak/skype.

I'm going to write a mail to C-Media and hope that they'll answer.
