Did you change "Input Source" mixer element to "Front Mic" (or "Mic")
properly?
The vt170x support code has still no automatic switch via mic jack
detection, thus you have to change the recording source manually.

Also, there are "Mic Boost" and "Front Mic Boost" volumes that change
the input level, too.
