Recently my system does not recognize the mic when the system starts until I put out and reinsert its sony jack.
Please post more information about system

I should note that I have used the back mic connector.
PulseAudio Profile and Rear Microphone Port appear to be working as expected, and other sources for Front Microphone and Line In are not available so should not be causing any problem
I suggest you reboot system to recreate the non-working condition
Then get more information about PulseAudio source configuration:

ALSA settings for microphone capture appear to be OK
'Capture',0 is turned [on] and level set to 100%
'Input Source',0 is set to use 'Rear Mic'
But PulseAudio is not showing a source for the Rear Microphone, only a sink monitor for recording desktop audio playback
I suggest set the card Profile to create an output sink + input source (same as the Active Profile shown in post#3) and set the Rear microphone input as the default-source
pactl set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_00_1f.3 output:analog-stereo+input:analog-stereo;
pactl set-default-source alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo
If audio capture is still not working as expected, check if the source is shown as muted or suspended
in
pactl list sinks
