It's probably the USB connection.
Check that the USB cable is seated well in the socket and reboot the computer.

I want them balanced so that the source tracks are equal volume in both-- I want equal amounts of both drums and synth in both speakers. Audacity 1.3.x only (not Audacity 1.2.x) Click on the name of the track and from the drop down ...
