How are you "downloading" from YouTube to the tablet? What stops you downloading the actual YouTube file (therefore "as is" with no volume changes) to the computer that runs Audacity? You can search Google for how to download YouTube videos. It is not a good idea to convert to MP...

These steps usually "just work" on Ubuntu:

Are you sure you did not save an Audacity project? Look at File > Recent Files and click on the .aup file. Or search your comp...
