Daniel: Yes, I adjusted the mixer settings.

Using the GNOME Sound Preferences I only see one device: "Internal Audio Analog", which is the one that controls the mic that connects to the line-in jack on the side of my laptop.

Using alsa-mixer from the terminal, on the other hand, shows what it seems to be three devices: Mic, Internal and Mix. When "Mix" or "Internal" are selected the GNOME Sound Preferences "Input Volume" is set to "Mute".

I pushed the input volume all the way and I toggled between "Mic", "Internal" and "Mix" while testing with the Sound Recorder. None of them got the built-in mic sound.
