Thanks for replying. I tried the Karmic Live CD and found that the
microphone works with it! So it must be a configuration issue and not
a hardware issue.
Here is what the alsa-info.sh script says about my hardware

The chip is a Realtek ALC833, for which the the driver is HDA-Intel.
I have full listing from alsa-info.sh for both the live CD and my
installed system, plus a diff between them, but I don't know enough
about this stuff to know where to begin to find a significant difference.
