Mathematica doesn't find my USB microphone

My USB microphone shows up in the PulseAudio volume control and also works well with Audacity, arecord etc.

However, Mathematica can’t see the mic – $AudioInputDevices gives me a null list.

How can I set up the mic to work as an audio input device in Mathematica?
