It looks like this webcam has not been working properly since Ubuntu Hardy.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/280657

I'm not sure of the version included in Hardy. Would it help if I
tried to find the GSPCA version from Hardy to compare the changes?

In searching for details on this webcam model, I came across some
patches that you submitted a while back that initialize the GPIO with
different values. I tested those, but saw no results. I see you've
worked on this specific driver quiet a bit in the past:
http://linuxtv.org/hg/~hgoede/gspca/rev/65247a979498

Is the previous maintainer, Michel Xhaard, still working on this
driver at all? I wonder if he might be able to help identify the
problem or narrow it down.

Which function is called when I open Cheese or other video
applications? Initializing the webcam appears to be correct, however,
sd_start() or the one that starts the video capture appears to be
toggling or changing some setting. If I knew of a way, I would insert
more debug messages to help pinpoint the place where the microphone
breaks along with some boolean to show that its working or not.

Thanks.
