[Elecraft] No ALC Indication in DATA A mode with fldigi

[KE0KAC]

I'm stuck trying to understand why I can't get any ALC bars when I'm using
fldigi.  I can connect headphones to the line that normally goes into the
MIC connector and can vary the volume from complete silence to very loud so
I know a signal is making it to the MIC jack.  If I plug my MH3 microphone
into the MIC jack and speak, I see the bars vary depending on how loud I
talk.  

A question - when fldigi puts the KX3 into transmit and send data, should
the RF scale disappear and be replaced by the ALC scale?  Sometimes (like
right now) I don't see the ALC scale BUT I see bars above the RF scale that
I can vary using the MIC knob.  What causes the ALC scale to show up?

By the way, my KX3 is connected to a KXPA100 which the manual indicates has
an ALC adjustment screw.  Is the KXPA100 controlling some of this?
