I did some more investigation.
On the Dell 1521 AMD64 (snd-hda-intel)

Finally, I was able to record with the microphone with Flash doing:

1 - Kill pulseaudio
2 - Set System - Prererences - Sound : Detection and Capture with my (hardware) Sound card HDA (Alsa)
3 - No .asoundrc
3 - No /etc/asound.conf

Muted buttons are still behaving strangely, but I was able to play/record with Flash...

Then I restarded "pulseaudio -D".

When Flashplayer is loaded, I can see that the Alsa plugin is used in Pulseaudio Volume Control for playing and recording. But no sound is capture (sound output works).

The ALSA Plugin for pulseaudio does not seems to be able to record. Also, switching the stream from one source to another sometimes (often) kills the Flash player.

Note: My internal microphone started working again when everything was set to ALSA only. But with Pulseaudio, it does not work (Volume seems to be really low...)

I'll test on the Averatec (32bits) to validate the settings and validate if it will work.
