I tried this as well.  The first time I tried it I swear I got an error.  I
tried again this morning at it seemed to work fine -- no error at all.

  do "set volume input volume 50" as applescript

I do recall reading somewhere that for some AppleScripts to work, something
under another control panel needs to be enabled, along the lines of "Enable
access for assistive devices" in the Universal Access panel.  But here, this
checkbox is disabled and the script still works fine.  Hmmm...
