Hi, @danrgmc,
I've the same MoBo as you : P7P55D-E from Asus. Using Ubuntu 10.4 (Lucid, AMD64 version) I did have the same issue : sound input (microphone) did not work at all. Installing the backport as stated in the first answer, i.e. "linux- backports-modules-alsa-lucid-generic", then reboot, then I had to configure the sound service properly (using the GUI, when you clic on the speaker, usually on the top right of the desktop -> Settings, because the input was disabled by the software, i.e. PulseAudio had the mic disabled by default). All this steps solved the issue for me.
