Save the project to a Dropbox folder that syncs with other computers. What happens if you don't do that? Forget about syncing files. Do your steps, but save the project and export the label track to a local file that other applications don't have access to? If the steps then don't reproduce, could ...

Recording multiple on-line radio stations at the same time on the same computer has no chance of working unless you are able to play multiple on-line radio stations at the same time on the same computer while keeping the audio streams separate.

I also tried exporting as audacity project. When I import it back into audacity it is still messed up. You cannot export and import Audacity projects. If you save and reopen an Audacity project, track alignment should not change, even if you save a "compressed copy" of the project which e...

I tried using the headphone socket (as per usual I tried the simplest solution last). Works fine ! You mean the headphone socket of the amp?

My understanding is that this is a bug in PortAudio's support for libpulse or libasound. If so, it should be followed up with PortAudio. I've never seen t...
