Bil Unruh:
Sorry for my choice of words. What I meant with "arecord | aplay" not doing what it should was that I could not hear myself when talking. Those two commands should output everything that goes to the microphone and I could not hear anything. Furthermore, the laptop does have a sound card. I have added the output of lspci below.

Yes I read that and the alsa config posted on that page is not working either. For example, if I run "arecord | aplay" without my headphones on, I cannot hear myself. If I do the same thing with a pair of headphones, instead of my voice I hear static noise. If I try to record myself with Audacity without headphones, I cannot hear myself but if I use Audacity and headphones, all works well. But then, if I use headphones with skype, I cannot hear other people talking, just skype sounds and other people cannot hear me either. The alsa config which I am talking about is the one from the debian wiki.
Today I found out that WITHOUT the ".asoundrc" file containing the configs from the debian wiki, the microphone seems to work but it is very faint. If I blow air into the microphone, I can almost hear something.
I am providing links to pastebin with the output of lspci and amixer running the 3.7 kernel from experimental. If there is anything else that is needed please let me know. I am a bit of a newbie when it comes to sound settings in general.
Thank you for your time.

Do you have pulse audio installed and if so have you also installed
pavucontrol and examined the situation?
Obviously, if that doesn't help, I would uninstall pulse audio while
trying to sort out any alsa problems, but you have probably done that
already.
