    I think this website has the best information: https://launchpad.net/~sony-vaio-z-series

    I finally have the internal mic working.
    I added the line

    options snd-hda-intel model=toshiba-s06

    to the end of the file alsa-base.conf in /etc/modprobe.d

    You still have to go to Volume Control -> Options and choose Int DMic

    After that the audio settings in Skype were all messed up, but after that I could use the internal mic with Skype!

    I still have to read the details to disable the NVidia chip. Once I figured out an easy way, I'll post them back here.
