unable to record (alsa)

[Marc Williams]

With my fresh install of FC3, I am unable to record using my microphone. 
  The rest of my audio works great - playing, ripping, etc.  My 
soundcard was properly detected as a via 82c686a/b rev 50 and I've 
checked the mixer settings so that they match what was there in FC2. 
I've tried both the Gnome Sound Recorder and Gnomemeeting and I can get 
recording working in neither.

Just to make sure my mic is working, I plugged my old FC2 HDD back in 
and everything works fine.  I'm not sure what to try next.  Any help? 
Thanks!
