Hi everyone, been using Audacity for close to 10 years, mostly on Debian, ( don’t judge me) 
I thought I’d try something different, now I’m using 3.4.2 on Linux Mint. It seams to be working OK, except there seams to be problem saving configurations. After loading a project the scrub ruler doesn’t automatically load, even though in Edit | Preferences | Interface the “Show scrub ruler” check box is checked.
The work around is to just do this every time. Edit | Preferences | Interface | OK
But I did a bit of investigation into this and found that the file audacity.cfg was written to multiple times.
gitsy@gitsym:~$ inotifywait -m /home/gitsy/.config/audacity
Setting up watches.
Watches established.
/home/gitsy/.config/audacity/ MOVED_FROM audacity.cfg

/home/gitsy/.config/audacity/ MODIFY audacity.cfg

And it still doesn’t load show the scrub ruler, even when I load a project. I deleted the audacity.cfg file in the hopes that new .cfg file would be created a fresh. I also did Tools | Reset Configuration but no luck. Has anyone had an issue with this, and found a solution?
P.S. I completely deleted audacity, changed repositories and reinstalled, but it still doesn’t save the scrub ruler.
