I'm having trouble building 2.1.1 on Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivd). I downloaded and un-archived the source tarfile with no errors. Then I executed 'sudo apt-get build-dep audacity' to get the dependencies. Configure seemed to run okey, but the text scrolled by so fast I don't know if there were any serious e...

I finally got everything to work after experimenting with device settings. It seems the default setting was giving me problems. There were two instances of the sound card showing up and all I did was choose the first instance as my playback and record device. Everything's bunnies and cupcakes now! U...

Hi, bgravato! Thanks for the tip on purging the bluetooth stuff from my system. I'm not running any bluetooth and purging that package got rid of those pesky connect messages. I'm now down to a "Expression 'stream->capture.pcm' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 3653" error. I'm sti...

I haven't changed the device preferences since the upgrade. The host is set to ALSA, the record and playback devices are set to the sound card. Setting the devices to pulse result in no change.

Hi! I recently upgraded to Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. I installed Audacity 1.3.12 from the repositories and have just now discovered that I can't record. The cursor on the track moves normally but there is no audio being recorded or indication on the input meter. The input selection dropdown is also missing...
