If this is 100% reproducible, you'll see likely a difference in /proc/asound/card0/codec#* file between working and non-working states. Could you attach codec files in both states?
I have to do 4 things to enable the microphone (a built-in one) as follows (with diffs of codec between steps)
1) Turn on capture and mux on and set them on max
Node 0x12 [Audio Selector] wcaps 0x30010d: Stereo Amp-Out Amp-Out caps: ofs=0x00, nsteps=0x04, stepsize=0x27, mute=0 - Amp-Out vals: [0x00 0x00] + Amp-Out vals: [0x04 0x04] Connection: 7 0x0e* 0x15 0x0f 0x0b 0x0c 0x0d 0x0a
Node 0x17 [Audio Selector] wcaps 0x300903: Stereo Amp-In Amp-In caps: N/A - Amp-In vals: [0x80 0x80] + Amp-In vals: [0x0e 0x0e] Connection: 1 0x12
2) Switch from Mic to Front Mic - no changes 3) Switch from Front Mic back to Mic

4) Put Capture on minimum and the mic will start recording with dodgy quality.

The quality problem is perhaps because of the wrong pin setting. It's set in Hi-Z without vref. But it's a bit strange because stac92xx_get_vref() should return the proper vref value. Could you check whether this really gets called and which value is returned, e.g. by adding printk() there?
It doesn't get called according to my tests.
I've also tested with Alsa HG, but I can no longer make the mic work with the steps descrived, not to mention that with imac-intel model I get no sound.
