Default mic level for laptop's built-in mic is quite a bit higher than it should be #400

How did you upgrade to 22.04? (Fresh install / Upgrade) Clean install

Related Application and/or Package Version (run apt policy $PACKAGE NAME): Maybe gnome-control-center?

Issue/Bug Description: After install, the mic input level is set way up near 80%, which is way higher than it needs to be for most laptops. I usually set mine between 20% and 30% on my oryp6 and darp5. Screenshot from 2022-04-15 18-55-47

Steps to reproduce (if you know):

  1. Fresh install
  2. Check Settings > Sound > Input volume

Expected behavior: Default input level for built-in mic should be around 20%-30%

Other Notes:

This is correct. If you dont check the level before doing a call you might end up blowing some people ears. Setting the default level at 10% should be fine.
