Hi Steven,
I've missed your first post but anyway...
You could try a live CD disro like Knoppix which may find your sound
card and auto load all the drivers. You could test it working.
If it works then that is a start in that you know that you CAN get it
working and the hardware is OK.
Then somewhere in Knoppix (been a while since I've used it) it may tell
you exactly what the hardware is etc and then that gives you a head
start in looking for the drivers.
Don't know if there would be somewhere in knoppix virtual file system
(proc in memory I think) that tells you what the driver values it used are?
(This bit is beyond me here... just quessing)

Hey Daryl,
probably something similar here, however the solution you suggest
doesn't have the right result here. I created this file with your
suggested settings, but still I'm unable to get any input from my
microphone. Any suggestions how to trace down the problem?
You would have to research the correct driver for your particular sound
card first.
Can someone put me on the right track here? I have no idea where to
look for them. I didn't do this some time ago neither, however I
managed to get it working as well. I adapted the sound.conf file to
fit my laptop (dell), but still without any luck. I suspect this
indeed to be a combination of hardware issue and alsamixer, but I have
no clue how to start debugging it. As I'm not that much of a Linux
expert, any concrete steps are most welcome.
