Just to follow up on this, it seems both PCs use the same soundcard
chipset:

Dell Precision 420 desktop:-

02:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: Cirrus Logic CS 4614/22/24 [CrystalClear SoundFusion Audio Accelerator] (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Dell Unknown device 0096
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 193
        Memory at fcffe000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
        Memory at fce00000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M]
        Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2

IBM Thinkpad T21 laptop:-

00:05.0 Multimedia audio controller: Cirrus Logic CS 4614/22/24 [CrystalClear SoundFusion Audio Accelerator] (rev 01)
        Subsystem: IBM ThinkPad A20m
        Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
        Memory at e8122000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
        Memory at e8000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M]
        Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2

Perhaps someone has the same onboard soundcard, and a working
microphone attached, that can confirm whether recording works or not
please?
