I am not familiare with Mint but a lot of Linux problem in this area
related to permissions (e.g. access to audio devices)_ and membership of
audio group.


Can you record the PC audio output using arecord on a command line when
running as the same user id which runs Squeezecenter ?

well, yes, but i did have to enter a password. ie sudo arecord[] enter
password. 

In the groups, the user running SC does not have the box checked for
use audio devices, and I can't select it. Why, and is that the (or an)
issue at play here?

If you can only record PC audio after a sudo then it is very likely a
permission/group issue.

You can probably only select it if you are logged in as administrator
or root.

Amendment - no we don't have sounds... I forgot to unplug the speaker
from the headphone port. Opps. Funny mistake. 

So I'm still at a loss because now the permissions are taken care of.

Are you sure ?

You have tested that you have recorded pc audio using arecord when
logged in (not su as it is not the same) as the Squeezecenter user.

If recording audio from the terminal looks like this

}}} etc

then yes, I seem to be able to record audio just with arecord without
sudo.

Maybe I'm just loading the wrong URL. I'm typing in wavin:default. I've
also tried wavin:PCM and wavin:Front as these are the names of the
'devices' I see in Gnome-amixer

You should record to a file and then playback the file to make you
recorded the correct audio feed. 

Silence can also look like
