OK. I've got the test partition up & working. With a base install & no additional packages/ppa's/backports, the internal mic does work... providing that I enable it as Mic F in gnome-alsamixer (see screenshot). No model is specified in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf. I'll get an alsa-info.txt snapshot of the machine in this state before adding the dev ppa.
Note: The problem (internal mic not working) occurs when adding linux-backports-alsa-lucid-generic and modifying /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf to add model="olpc-xo-1_5" to fix the separate problem with the speakers & headphones enabled at the same time. The backports/model resolves the speakers/headphone issue, but in the process the internal mic no longer works (external mic via the mic jack does continue to work).
