This bug is still happening in both 12.04 and 12.10.
Simple to reproduce.
Use laptop with analogue built in Microphone.  Plug in a USB Microphone and switch to it.
When rebooting Ubuntu the analogue microphone is re-activated and NOT the last Microphone used
which was the USB Microphone.
In addition going to "Sound Settings" and clicking on Input will cause the Microphone to fall off the
USB Microphone and onto the built in Analogue Microphone forcing the user to then reselect the
USB Microphone.   What is the likely hood of this ever getting fixed?

Title:
  Using an external USB microphone.

Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: pulseaudio

  The problem I face is that after plugging a Logitech QuickCam, that
  has a built-in microphone, that microphone does not become active. I
  can switch it manually in sound preferences, but it does not becomes a
  default. Meaning that it wont be the default input after reboot,
  suspend, unplug/replug.

  I actually worked it around using udev and power management, see
  attachments. It's a hack, but works.
