Thank you - works perfectly now. A comment: I've attached a screen shot showing the volume control settings before I changed anything. To my eyes this picture says Microphone recording is turned on.
I assume the following is considered 'normal' however it is not clear to me why this should be the case: 1. Mic on , capture on : works with either Mic or Capture selected under 'Record from input' in Sound Recorder (Expected, Mic is on!). 2. Mic on, capture off : does not work with Mic selected as 'Record from input: in Sound Recorder (Not expected, Mic is on!) 3. Mic off, capture on : works with Capture selected as 'Record from input' in Sound Recorder (As this works, why not #2?) 4. Mic off, capture off : does not work (expected) In retrospect it appears that the 'Capture' control is a global control for all recording. As there is no obvious physical object to associate with the 'Capture' control (as there is with 'Mic' or 'CD'), reference to 'Capture' as a global control would be a useful addition to the Help documentation.
