I have the same issue, seen in the video here:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDTw3Q4mTmQ
Other applications can record using pulseaudio, I regularly use pulseaudio to manage 4 or 5 possible input sources and several outputs depending on the application. This appears to be an issue specifically with Sound Recorder. I have verified it on 2 machines now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-media in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1157654 Title: Sound recorder does not work Status in “gnome-media” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In Raring sound recorder does not work. * after I open the application it does not show any activity under "Level". * nothing happens after clicking record button, choosing record from the menu or after pressing Ctrl+R * recording is fine in audacity * input tab under sound settings shows activity on my input Description: Ubuntu Raring Ringtail (development branch) Release: 13.04 Codename: raring gnome-media: Installed: 3.4.0-1ubuntu1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-media/+bug/1157654/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
