Public bug reported:

>> When recording the noise is too high (even when recorded in silent 
>> environment) and masks the input voice/speech.
>> Microphone boost if increased increases the noise level
>> Issues seen in multiple recording software and applications like audacity, 
>> matlab, skype etc. (so not an issue with application)
