So, are you telling us that ALSA inserts the plugin in both
the capture and playback paths ? That would be absolutely
braindead. 

If the ALSA device doesn't provide enough level on the mic
input then there is something wrong with either the driver
or its configuration. If it's one that depends on 'quirks',
you'll have to find the right ones...
