Comment 5 for bug 1230231

Confirming:

'Record from input' offers only one option: Master
'Record as' offers no options: it is blank.

Although I'm a technical user, I must say that although the above comments suggest it is a configuration issue, I don't see anything wrong in sound settings. Whatsmore, it just used to work before I upgraded my system from 12.04 to 14.04.

In short:

- sound recording should "just work"
- is there a temporary workaround I could use?
