This seems to correspond to volumes I have had before. They are enough
for phone call in quiet environment, but not really for normal usage.

Do you have settings where microphone on wired headset works?

Thanks,
Pavel

Those settings above. They are set after putting all volumes to 0 and
muted. I'm using the Nokia WH-205 headset that came with the phone.

I just wanted to say thank you. I finally got to testing those
settings again, and this time headset microphone definitely works.

Loopback using arecord | aplay now produces reasonable volume of
audio. (Unfortunately, I still have some problems somewhere in the
audio<->GSM path :-( ).

Best regards,
Pavel
