Not that weird.

One of our Linux distributions does something similar. You note the level is a little low, so you adjust the volume and Audacity will switch to a different input. Switch back manually and everything's OK again. In that case, I think it's an interaction with artsd.

Do you have the cable plugged into the connector with the circle and two black arrows? It's not labeled Line-In. Apple > System Preferences > Hardware > Sound > Input. Is that volume control all the way up and do you have bouncing blue lights on that sound meter if you play music? That's a wide-rang...

<<<I saw a suggestion that 'Smart Recording' may be on, but if I never enabled it, why would the settings change from one week to the next?>>> Mistakes, errors, and typos. I know I personally never strike any keys by accident while I'm speed typing, but you might. Do you know what the hot key combin...

This seems to be one of the many sound cards that delivers multiple channels of sound in stereo pairs. Audacity will only manage one "device" at a time -- usually stereo. http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=9477&start=0 <<<Somewhere on the forum is some information a...
