Cannot record sound with video from webcam

Hi, all
I have Acer 7520 laptop and gentoo linux on it. Webcam and internal mic separately works fine (video in mencoder and sound in audacity). But when I try to capture both video from webcam and sound from internal mic there are no sound in result file.
Here is mencoder output:
Code:
$ mencoder tv:// -tv width=640:height=576:fps=15:alsa:adevice=hw.0,0 -oac pcm -ovc xvid -xvidencopts fixed_quant=5 -o video.avi

I do not know enough about mencoder to comment on your example

I found what worked for my on my PC was:
Code:
mencoder tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=320:height=240:device=/dev/video0:forceaudio:adevice=/dev/dsp -ovc lavc -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:br=64:mode=3 -o webcam.avi
Also, with ffmpeg, the following also worked for me on my laptop:
Code:
ffmpeg -f oss -i /dev/dsp -f video4linux2 -s 320x240 -i /dev/video0 out.mpg
Note with ffmpeg, on my Dell Studio 15 laptop, the audio was about 400 msec ahead of the video. This was easily fixed in avidemux. The mencoder command did not have the audio/video sync problem.

My Dell Studio 15's webcam is an ID: 05ca:18a1 Ricoh Co., Ltd and it works with the uvc driver.
