Error while opening sound device

Post by Poptart » Fri Dec 30, 2011 8:35 pm

I keep getting this error while trying to record. Just moments before this started, I was able to record and play back this whole long spiel multiple times, but as soon as I exported it as a wav and went to record this little two second bit, It refused to play back the audio and gave me this error. I changed no settings in between, and I've tried every fix I've found, but it's still not working. Please help. D:

Try this draft article have been preparing: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/User ... und_device

It's pretty complete now, the only reason it's not published yet is that we can't decide whether it should live in the Wiki or the Manual.
