Lots of issues recording sound because many applications arbitrarily use settings suitable for the desktop and the sound card on the Pinephone does not have that kind of flexibility. The sound card settings can be seen by:
arecord -l
aplay -l
pactl list sinks
pactl list sources
The following line:
arecord -f dat -d 10 test.wav
will successfully record 10 seconds from the microphone. The "-f dat" is required, as it sets the frequency and endianness of the sound stream.
Currently trying to figure out how to apply this knowledge to various microphone dependant apps, lol

PS: You will need to install the alsa-utils package for aplay and arecord
arecord -l
aplay -l
