 From information provided by Sean I can't see why added quirk for 
playback may affect recording in any way. More likely I would guess that 
change from two playback pcm/dsp devices to one, while still having two 
record ones, made hw.snd.default_unit less usable (because there is no 
choice of output devices for it any more). Respective two input pcm/dsp 
device may require to be chosen manually in recording application. Or 
you can try additional hints to join both mics in one dsp/pcm device, 
provided by Kevin Oberman:
hint.hdac.0.cad0.nid35.config="as=2"
hint.hdac.0.cad0.nid27.config="as=2 seq=15"

PS: When checking mixer, remember that there is separate mixer for every 
pcm/dsp device. Sean. you've provided output only for one. I guess that 
other (internal) microphone is on another pcm device/mixer.
