Audio settings --> set audio output to "xine" engine --> change output
module (in German "Ausgabe-Modul") to "file". That writes the output to
the file "~/alsa-out.wav".

Sorry for inaccuracies from translating, I have a German locale, so I
don't know what the English version says.

Side note: I know it's possible to temporarily set the locale to en_US
in the command line. I tried doing a
$ {LANG,LANGUAGE,LOCALE}="en_US" amarok
, but amarok stayed German. Temporarily changing KDE to US English
affected the control center (immediately), but not amarok. What is the
correct way of doing this?

Actually, I used aplay because that was what first sprung to mind ;).
You can of course use amarok, or whatever you want (I edited what I
recorded in Audacity, for instance).

HTH,
