I finally worked it out.

To record from line input using this card (the Turtle Beach Santa
Cruz, cs46xx driver), you have to set *all three* of:

                          LINE  CAPTURE  ADC

to Captur(e) (and also un-mute and set values appropriately of course).
Alsamixer in fact supplies two Capture channels for the card. Here at
least, the crucial one is the leftmost channel.

It seems to work nicely now.

What a relief; what a struggle,

Jim
