We were configuring the very small 1.4 kg Sony Vaio
with integrated videocamera.

For sound, we plugged in a Logitech USB Headset 300;
waited a few seconds for the hardware to be recognized; 
then started the AG Client.

Under RAT
  Options (button at bottom)
    Preferences Window
      Category - Audio
         Audio Device Logitech USB Headset - Select
         
         (I believe the other option was Digital SoundMax
         which is the built-in speaker.  This has no echo
         cancellation and so is not suitable for AG client)

It is definitely much lower quality, but workable.
