Audacity 2.4.2 has always worked in the past for me, however, suddenly it won't. My Windows version is 20H2. I'm currently trying to capture/record my desktop audio, I'm also wearing headsets right now so the output is set to those. I can hear music and everything through my headsets, however, the is no audio being picked up by the software *flatlined*. I've already have tried a lot of different methods to fix this issue; however, I'm still stuck. Any suggestions would be great thanks.

WASAPI loopback may not work with wireless headphones. Try using loopback with your computer's on-board sound card.
