Yes, I checked the mixer. It reports pcm and rec settings, which both
default to 45. I cranked the rec setting up to 100, but still got nothing
but silence.

Also, as a very crude test, doing cat /dev/dspX (where X is the
corresponding pcm unit number) yields only the same value over and over,
though on 7.2 I can see different values being read when the mic picks
up sound.
