I am using the line-out from the radio to the line-in to my computer. It
worked 4 hours ago, before I upgraded FC 1 to FC 4.
Why do think that alsamixer
levels in FC 1 would have anything to do
with the levels in FC4 after the upgrade.

I used aumix (which shows all is well), and Alsa. I can hear system
sounds, bells and dings and the like, but no weather radio coming form
line in on the PC. I verified that my current install of icecast and
darkice are working.
Since I have never heard of aumix nor Alsa I can't
comment on their
use. system sounds , bells and dings have nothing to do with the
channels for inputing radio into FC4. Above you are talking I assume
the physical line in to your machine. That is also not what i asked
about. alsamixer is the program to adjust the internal sound channels
of which there are more than 10. It is these channel levels I am
referring to.
Of course, it also possible that aumix and Alsa do the same thing as
alsamixer and I am all wet.
