I can't help you with a cover for a DS case, but I would recommed something like what I did.  I had to dig back to 2014 to find this post.

Well I started to mod the double CD jewel case to fit the VMUs.  

First I cut out the center of the middle section of the case.  Original case on the left, modified case on the right.

Next, I removed the piece that holds the disc in place.  I'm only removing the back piece since the foam insert will go here.

Next, I cut the foam to fit and cut out slots for the VMUs.  I need a little more practice since the foam looks like crap right now.  But I will get it right eventually.  I'm going to glue the back half shut so you can only open the front.  This will hold the back inlay and foam in place when it's opened.  The front inlay will be held in place in the same way it would in a normal case.

I checked and the microphone will fit in the case in the same way.  I just need to cut a different piece of foam and modify another jewel case.

I would suggest these

I used the 20 disc cases to store 4 VMUs per case and the 20s help with storing of rumble packs.
