Pin complex 0x12 is directly connected to audio input 0x11.

Driver  switch between audio inputs node 0x11 and node 0x08 for internal
mic jack and external Mic jack


The driver need to bind the amp in of node 0x11 and 0x08 to create the
capture volume control when two  Mic jacks connected to audio input node
0x08 through node 0x23

alsamixer -D pulse

The color or percentage does not reflect the hw capture volume / boost

If base volume is -66dB , why maximum volume and boost is 121%?

Seem total hardware gain exceed pulseaudio limit on maximum gain
