Sorry, I thought I'd already asked but I hadn't. I think I can guess the answer, but best not to guess at this point...
When you are recording from Banshee or Internet radio, what settings do you have selected in the
device toolbar?

the four fields were set like this :
Audio Host =
ALSA
Output Device =
default
Input Device =
default
Input Channels =
2 (Stereo) Input Channels
I just changed the "Input Device" to
ADC Capture/Standard PCM Playback (hw:0.0) (whatever that is) and it now works !
I'm sure I tried this a few days ago and it didnt work then but I may have since changed something in ALSA Mixer.
Thanks for all the help

Great - you're in business.
One limitation of recording that way is that if any other audio programs are open then it will probably stop working. The "audio program" that people often forget about is their web browser if any open pages include Flash or other media players. So if it suddenly stops working, just check what other programs are running.
