I should be able to try tonight (I need to reinstall packages).

Note that contrary to output autoswitch, input autoswitch is not done
with pulseaudio.

I'm not sure that input autoswitch is a good idea, at least while input
is being used: while the output level affects only the user, switching
input may have a bad effect in the middle of a video conference as the
new microphone has not been tested yet. If expected, I wonder whether
this is configurable (a tutorial and/or a FAQ would be useful).
