Comment(by talent03):

 I am not going to reopen this lennart, but I thought it would be good to
 report my issue with this bug as you keep closing it. I have tried Fedora,
 and I am using Ubuntu Jaunty right now. By using paman on Ubuntu I am able
 to increase the volume past 100% for digital amplification. The problem is
 that it sounds terrible. When I check the recording volume at a decent
 level there is loud static. Recording meter shows the bars sitting around
 the center. When not using pulse audio, I get great use of the internal
 mics. Whether or not you want to think that pulse audio is working
 correctly in that respect, I would have to say that it is not. Just to
 state my point again. Digital amplification with this internal mic works,
 but it is not usable. There is no point to having digital amplification if
 pulseaudio is not using the internal mic correctly. Thank you for all the
 work on pulseaudio.
