See http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/Modules and read about
module-null-sink and module-loopback. You can obviously only record from
one source (for screencasting - probably a monitor), but you can also
loop back any number of sources to the sink whose monitor you're
recording. That can be a null sink, too, so that you don't get feedback
through your speakers.

Obviously that's not relevant to VLC itself, it's through pactl/pacmd
(sorry) and pavucontrol that you need to select the appropriate
recording source.
