I wonder whether the attached device would also do the trick? It may, but we have no idea what the quality of that device is like. As Trebor wrote, the mic input may be massively overloaded by a tape output, causing it to distort horribly. The Behringer UCA 202 and UCA 222 have standard RCA connect...

Thanks for the update. Good to know that it was an audio system configuration problem rather than an Audacity issue. Thanks also for posting the links which may be useful for anyone else having similar problems.
