Again...according to Arnold there was a Beethoven 5th recorded in 1910 by the Grosses Odeon-Streichorchester. On my copy of the book I penciled in Friedrich Kark as the conductor. That recording is available on Youtube. Beethoven Symphony n.5 - Friedrich Kark - Odeon Symphony Orchestra, Berlin 1910

There is at least one from 1911, prob cond. By Otto Urack on Odeon that came before the Nikisch. There was an Odeon Pastorale credited to Urack, also in 1911. This according to Arnold. I have a cassette of the Pastorale somewhere, but can't find it right now.

The earliest recording of a complete symphony was of course that of Beethoven’s Fifth with the Berlin Philharmonic conducted by Arthur Nikisch and recorded on 11 November 1913. It was reissued on LP on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of The Gramophone Company in 1973 (EMI 1C 053-01 466) and has been reissued on CD several times. It is now available on YouTube etc.
