Re: Audacity + Audigy2: The solution is
I thought that had been solved years ago, just by using a more recent version of Debian / Ubuntu.

Re: Audacity + Audigy2: The solution is
I found my old Audigy2 and the problem appeared again. On the Audigy SE has no such problem.

Re: Audacity + Audigy2: The solution is
Are you going to tell us how you solved it, or are you saying that the solution was to use a different sound card?

Re: Audacity + Audigy2: The solution is
If anyone's interested, I'll share a discovery. 1. Launch Audacity. 2. All the sound disappears. 3. In the toolbar "RECORDING DEVICE" (!) choose
SB Audigy 2 Platinum [SB0240P]: p16v (hw:0,4). 4. The sound appears. Then you can specify any device for recording. The sound does not go away.
Please, use.
