Mostly a couple comments inline.

Little hard to say without the rest of the ucm file (happy to
have a look at that if you had a handy link?), but this
looks a bit weird. Why are you connecting the MIXINR IN3R stuff
here, you want to go through the PGA most likely?

This should probably be CaptureVolume, rather than CaptureSwitch.

Assuming your machine driver creates an appropriately named
control.

This still looks weird, I wouldn't expect you would hear anything
with the "Capture Switch" off, it mutes the PGA. Can you confirm
if this is on whilst you are actually capturing audio?

I definitely would consider turning this on as just a test thing
not a recommendation on how the part should be used, until we see
if it helps. It was just a weird hunch, I feel the routing is
probably more sensible without it.

I don't think you should have both the IN3R and PGA switches
enabled at once. I would suggest only using the PGA switch.

Ok, I think what is happening here is you have both of
these connected, and because you have the PGA muted, you are
only hearing the unboosted mic signal coming through MIXINR
IN3R. This would explain both why the Capture Volume has no
effect and why your signal is quiet.
