Audacity tries to scan the whole world if there's some kind of audio stuff. On my desktop PC I have only JACK started. Pulse is off and Pulse's autostart is disabled in /etc/pulse/client.conf: autospawn = no I start Pulse only for Skype, manually in a shell script. On my notebook I had the same setting but I enabled Bluetooth to test some audio stuff via Bluetooth. To make a long story short: I could output sound from ALSA clients mit couldn't get it working with JACK. But Audacity always hung for some 30 or more seconds as long as Bluetooth was configured for sound profiles and /usr/share/alsa/pulse-alsa.conf wasn't renamed to another suffix. Start Audacity on a terminal window and you see what it tries to connect to, sometimes in vain. Although I configured Audacity to use JACK I couldn't keep it from scanning stupidly around. > record different 'takes' that way as well).

That's the reason why I use Audacity :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Rosegarden-devel mailing list [email protected] - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-devel
