My recollection from looking at this last year is there's not a
trivial fix for this due to the signal specifics in the shell
recorder.  However, an easy workaround is to load the screencast into
something like pitivi, record a narration over it, and render the
existing video with a new sound track.  This actually is a good
method, because it's not often that people do great narration while
they're carrying out the tasks in the video.
