Have you tested whether gnome-sound-recorder works well in KDE and optionally also other desktops? If not (or if it pulls too many dependencies), it would be good to suggest an alternative tool as well.

 

• Make sure the input sound device is correctly connected to your computer, so that you can expect that sound will be recorded, i.e. you have a microphone (or any sound producing device) connected to the input of your sound adapter.
• Run Settings and navigate to the Sound tab. Check that your sound device is correctly recognized by the system. In case you have more input sound devices, make sure all of these devices are listed.
• Select a preferred device for input and set the input level using the slider and the indicator below to avoid over-excitation of the signal and sound distortion.

How to test

• Start a sound recording application.
• Record a sound clip of about 10 seconds using the microphone (or another sound producing device).
• Play back the recorded sound.

Expected Results

• The recorded sound clip is correctly recorded and can be played back. Note that the quality of the recording depends on many factors, such as the quality of the sound adapter, the microphone, the wires used, etc. Therefore the sound quality should not be considered a test failing criterion unless the quality is much worse than expected.

Except for the note above, LGTM.

Do you intend to propose a new audio recording criterion? I think it has a reasonable chance of getting accepted.
