I'm using an MSI board...*looking into my computer*...it's an MS-6570.
I'm running alsa too.

A common problem is that the mixer is not setup correctly. You should
start alsamixer with "alsamixer -V all" to show all controls. Then you
have to check that the capture switch is set for MIC and (!!) CAPTURE.
You can set this switch with the space key. However you should also
unmute MIC BOOST with the M key.

Ah...yes...KDE. This might be a problem with KDE's evil sound server.
Kill the arts process! And try then again.
