I have plugged a (cheap) microphone in to the mic port on my laptop. If I turn up the mic level in alsamixer I can hear the mic through my plugged in headphones.
In cadence I route System Capture to a program (ardour, guitarix etc) and I get no input there although I can still hear the mic.
In cadence I have my soundcard set to input and output.
So what is happening? How can the input be passing through the system but ignored by jack?
I'm not even sure what information to provide but here is some general system info:
