Thank you! Changing the default-sample-rate in the config file to 48000 seemed to work.

I am on Ubuntu 14.04 and have Audacity 2.0.5 and am having the same exact issue.

I have tried going between 44100, 48000, 32000, 22050 ... none of them record audio from the computer correctly.
It is either very slow playback, or a bunch of static and the program crashes.
