    You do on FC6 need to find the Alsa sound adjuster. On FC6 you go to 
"System->Preferances" and near the bottom is a button called Volume 
Control. Click this and you will see the control devices on your sound 
card. Some will be turned off with a Red X. If you don't want that click 
on the X and it will go away.

    Now adjust the earphone levels and the mike level to what you want. 
Then go to it. But when you turn off the computer it will revert to the 
old setting.
