@rubbiroid: Thanks for the link: http://blog.ostermiller.org/ubuntu-usb-audio/ 
Worked for me, just had to slightly modify script to fit to my setup (mic: grep usb also gave usb input device in my webcam with buitin mic). -> that WA works good.

Title:
  USB headset mic not picked when I plug headset in

Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: pulseaudio

  Whenever I plugged in my old audio jack headset, sound was immediately
  diverted from my speakers to the headset speakers, and the microphone
  was immediately available.

  When I plug in my new USB headset, I have to open Sound Preferences
  and switch both input to the headset. (Output is selected
  automatically, but I'm not sure if the first time it wasn't.)

  Aparrently this is a bug, not a configuration problem on my side. This may be a duplicate of or related to the following bugs - but none of these bugs described my specific issue (USB headset mic is not automatically picked):

  I'm using a Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Pi laptop, Maverick and a Logitech
  H330 USB headset.
