Hi,

I have a Sertek (ie Acer) DCS S817 PCI Sound Card which uses the Yamaha
724 chip.  While it works great under ALSA for output, it wouldn't give
any input that's recordable.  Since I've seen some folks complaining about
this in the past, I'll share my fix.

amixer eset 'MIC Boost',0,Volume1  1

Maybe not genius work, but it was set to 0 by default.  Setting it to 1
(which is the max) adds 20dB of input happiness and allowed me to get
microphone sound at a similar level to all the other items on my
mixer.  Since this value is not touched by any of the GUI mixers I have
installed, my card just seemed "broken".

So long and thanks for all the ALSA,
Jordan
