I just installed Pulse Audio over my ALSA installation. Is there a Pulse Audio mixer, something like alsamixer, that I can use for tasks such as changing the microphone gain?

  Depends on what you want. alsamixer didn't help me, because I couldn't adjust the 5.1 channels separately. you need pavucontrol for that, as gertvdijk pointed out in this answer.

Remember that Alsa is not removed when installing Pulseaudio. Pulseaudio uses Alsa in quite some extent and you could say it's a layer on top of Alsa.

There's pavucontrol (on Debian/Ubuntu also the package name). It allows you to do a little bit more configuration on the Pulseaudio server and Pulseaudio-managed things like Bluetooth audio profile selection. Some regular volume actions are just passed to the Alsa layer and are the same as adjusting them using alsamixer or alike.

If you, too, don't like to use the mouse: On Ubuntu 18.10 I found pamix as an ncurses-based alternative to pavucontrol. Use F1-F5 to switch tabs, vi-like (or arrow key) movement, see man page.
