post the pulseaudio verbose log when you plug and unplug the mic did pulseaudio retain the total dB (Capture Volume + Boost) ?

This behavior seems right. However, if I record sound with auto selected port, audio quality is very poor. There is loud noise in background. But if I switch to "wrong" port audio quality becomes great. E.g. I have to manually select "analog-input-microphone-internal" port when I attach external mike and vice versa. Example of record: http://self-perfection.homeip.net/files/2012/external_ru.flac (652 KiB) This record is made via headset microphone. During first half of record source port analog-input-microphone was selected then i switched to port analog-input-microphone-internal.
