use flashplayer and open source red5 (still in pre-alpha, but audio-recording works) or Macromedia Media Server for recordig and storing the audio, and javascript for clientside interaction with flashplayer. Beside of RoR skills, you need to be comfortable with Java (red5) and Actionscript (Flash) if you go the open source route. http://odeo.com is a good example of a RoR app with audio integration.

Carmen, yes, red5 needs the flash plugin at the client browser for the actual recording. Unfortuanetly, VLC or mplayer browser plugin will not reach the ubiquity of flash (flashplayer is on about 98% of all browsers) in the near and not so near future, no matter what features they add to it. red 5 <http://osflash.org/red5> is open source (LPGL), but it is a Java application, so that might be the reason it is not in the linux repositories yuo mentioned.
