Greetings and Happy New Year! Sorry I haven't posted on this thread for a while, but I have been working on seasonal task commitments and finally got time to work this problem again last week. Well, I have had some success since my last posting, but the solution to my problem is not what I intended....

Steve, In that case, it "should" be very straightforward; Just select "Pulse" for recording and playback devices, and let PulseAudio handle the Xonar. You're going to tell me that doesn't work. Yes, it sortof works. Here is the problem: If I have "Software Passthrough" turned off, recording seems to...

Steve, I think those references to "AV200" are your Asus Xonar not working, but other than that I don't know what they mean. Yes, the AV200 is the sound chip used in the Xonar D2. These messages puzzled me too. They look like compiler errors, but it is in runtime, not compile time. It may be some so...

Update.
I compiled and tried Audacity 2.2.0 but got the same results as 2.1.2. The problem with Software Passthrough is still there.

Greetings, Thanks for your prompt reply. I am trying to record from old media, such as records and tapes, via the Line Input of my Asus Zonar D2 audio card. This has worked in the past, but is now broken in some way. This morning, it was working for a few seconds, then it suddenly stopped again and ...

Greetings, I am running Slackware Linux 14.2 (K4.4.88), Audacity 2.1.2, and Pulseaudio 9.0 with an Asus Zonar D2 audio card. This combination was working with Slackware 14.1 without Pulseaudio. However, now I can't get the audio monitor (Software Passthrough) to work. With Software Passthrough off, ...
