[partiatly solved]
Found a mixer setting that worked:

1) open gnome-volume-control (in a terminal i guess; can't find it in menus)
2) Edit -> Preference , and check all the unchecked box
3) Make sure there is no item with it's volume at zero, or an icon barred by a 
red cross, including "capture mux" (in playback) and "capture" in recording.
4) test with sound recorder; if there is a problem, go back to 
gnome-volume-control, in the "option" tab, and change the "input source" (for 
me the right one was "mic"). Test for every input source.

I think that is fairly fool proof and should tell beginner what
"tinkering with the mixer" means.

After that, the sound recorder accepted to launch, and worked; I still
have the  'gconfaudiosrc ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink
profile=chat' error for the capture test, but 2 seconds or so after it
starts (and it works).
