Make sure the mic is selected as the "capture" source:

* Run alsamixer in a terminal.
* Press F6 and select your sound card.
* Press F4 to get to the capture settings.
* From the available inputs, select "Mic" (left/right arrow keys) and
press space to select it as the capture source. Raise the capture volume
to maximum (up arrow key.)
* Esc.

All of this can also be done in KMix if you're on KDE.
