recording vinyl record

When I try to record a vinyl record, I depress ‘record’ and the ‘pause’ ‘button’ also depresses automatically
What can I do to stop the ‘pause’ indicator from ‘turning on’ as well?
Thanks for you help.

Here is from Why does my recording keep pausing automatically or why is my recording cursor stuck?

Sound Activated Recording > The recording cursor can legitimately appear to be stuck in Audacity if you have accidentally enabled Sound Activated Recording in the > Transport Menu > and the current recording input is below the threshold level at which recording is set to start. You can tell this is the case because the blue Pause button will be depressed after you press Record.
To disable Sound Activated Recording, click the > Transport > menu and uncheck Sound Activated Recording (on/off).
To make a Sound Activated recording commence, increase the recording level, or reduce the “Activation level” at > Transport > Sound Activation Level…> .

HTH.
Cheers,
