I'm running debian squeeze with a Creative Labs X-Fi sound card and a
Koss CS-100 headset. I have the headset mike plugged into the sound card
optical/mike input jack rather than line-in and the sound card output
goes to some speakers.

In alsamixer gnome display, the Creative Labs card is selected. In
Playback, microphone, the level is up. However, in Recording, Master
Capture and Microphone Capture, while levels are also up, the mike is
muted (the mike icon is crossed out). In the command line alsamixer,
there is no muting option for the mike in Recording. How does one
un-mute the mike?

In spite of this, I have Audigy installed, and it displays the input
sound levels coming from the mike. So apparently the system is seeing
the mike and levels are set properly.

I installed NaturallySpeaking 10 with wine 1.2.3. Installation seemed to
go well, but NaturallySpeaking fails to start because it "Cannot find
multimedia device."
