Yes, pulseaudio is running. At least it has an entry in ps. But when I say 'pactl list' it says 'Connection refused' You've found the problem. You can see the same thing in the terminal output when launching Audacity. It gets to the point where it tries to connect to PulseAudio, but does not succee...

'Audio Track' --> 'Split Stereo to Mono' function? That command does not exist, but you can get the same effect another way. For example, if the project contains only one stereo track: SelectAll: Duplicate: SelectTracks:Mode="Set" Track="0.5" TrackCount="0.5" Silence:U...
