Just following up here since you just helped me on IRC.

Enabling KMix to show the Input Source allowed me to fix this.  It is supposed to be Line but it was set to Rear Mic for some reason.  
Changing it back to Line fixes it.  Running alsactl store saves this in the /var/lib/alsa/asound.state file so it should persist.

Thanks!
