 Hi,

 I just had the following situation, I connect my old VCR to my video
 capture card and the audio ouput to my microphone input.
 With tvtime I then could display the video but I did not find a way to
 loop the audio from the mic input to my speakers.
 I finally managed to get it working with:

     pactrl load-module module-loopback

 Unfortunately this stuff is totally undiscoverable by the average user. So
 please make this discoverable in the gui configuration tool of pulseaudio.

 Thanks a lot,
 Fabian

 Btw. this is on Ubuntu 10.10 64bit
