Shortcuts not being saved, even using Xml to import Shortcut

I’m using Audacity version 2.1.2
I’m on OS X El Capitan version 10.11.5

As the Topic says, My shortcuts get erased and put back to default every time i hit Ok in the shortcuts preferences menu, It’s so frustrating, i apply an unused key binding to Track alignment Start to zero and it wipes it every time. I’ve even tried using the XML import export system, it wipes that too, with a message saying 0 shortcuts imported. I’ve checked and that keybinding or any other binding i use is not being used by any other shortcut.

Is there something I’m missing here?

Any help welcome.

Sorry, it’s a bug, but it only occurs with shortcuts in cascading menus. The bug is fixed now in our source code so it will be fixed in Audacity 2.1.3 when released, but that is probably a few months away.

You can go back to 2.1.1: http://audacityteam.org/download/mac which version will see your shortcuts.
