I tried creating a desktop file callerd ( "RunAudacity.desktop" ) but it did not work. I put this in the file -->

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Start-Audacity
Comment=test of online script
Exec=/home/DRJOEROSS/StartAudacity.sh <=== the wk around: env PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 audacity
Icon=/home/DRJOEROSS/audacity.png
Terminal=true
Type=Application
As it says on http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Linux_Issues#pulse:
to avoid opening the terminal each time, it may (depending on the distribution) be possible to add the required latency command directly to the application launcher. If not, you can (with root permissions) edit /usr/share/applications/audacity.desktop and insert the pulse latency command directly after "Exec=", for example:
Exec=env PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 audacity %F
So, if you are using GNOME flashback, you can right-click over the Audacity launcher and choose "Properties" then edit the command.

If you are using Unity, edit the existing audacity.desktop file. There is no need to call another script (and scripts don't run until you give them executable permissions).

The batch file worked fine! It was my first and I put it im the wrong directory because I did not use a root nautilus window to find the user directory to store the new execuable script. I hope this works (yet Ty o be proven) and ma ll es it easier for others to use audacity. Joe
