Just to eliminate the obvious, you are sure you are using a stereo
dubbing cable, right?

Try arecord[1]:

arecord -f cd from-md.wav

You can either Ctrl-C it when you are done recording, or if you know
the duration of the stuff you want to record, specify it like so:

# Record 600 sec (10 min) of audio
arecord -D 600 -f cd from-md.wav

Also, since you now know how to use Audacity, why not try it for your
recording needs?

HTH,
