Arch Linux, up-to-date. As so often, a -Syu upgrade broke things again. This time it's audacity. Usually audacity, and any other playback/record app would show up in pauvcontrol - Not audacity anymore. I could use pauvcontrol to choose sink and source from which I want to record or playback audio using audacity - not anymore.



In audacity's preferences it only says ALSA in the top dropdown, im not sure if that is supposed to be like that or if it said PulseAudio before. There aren't even all my devices in the playback tab. Same goes for the recording device selection, but the loopback device I need to record from is there, so that works.

But now I wanted to playback sound from audacity too and it just doesn't work anymore. It doesn't list my USB playback device and when I set it to sysdefault I just get an error.

Not sure if those warnings mean anything, it won't print the version.

Even though I'm not sure if those errors are because of ALSA and maybe completely unrelated to the PulseAudio issue.

    Arch Linux, up-to-date. As so often, a -Syu upgrade broke things again. This time it's audacity. Usually audacity, and any other playback/record app would show up in pauvcontrol - Not audacity anymore. I could use pauvcontrol to choose sink and source from which I want to record or playback audio using audacity - not anymore.



    In audacity's preferences it only says ALSA in the top dropdown, im not sure if that is supposed to be like that or if it said PulseAudio before. There aren't even all my devices in the playback tab. Same goes for the recording device selection, but the loopback device I need to record from is there, so that works.

      Even though I'm not sure if those errors are because of ALSA and maybe completely unrelated to the PulseAudio issue.

      Arch Linux, up-to-date. As so often, a -Syu upgrade broke things again. This time it's audacity. Usually audacity, and any other playback/record app would show up in pauvcontrol - Not audacity anymore. I could use pauvcontrol to choose sink and source from which I want to record or playback audio using audacity - not anymore.



      In audacity's preferences it only says ALSA in the top dropdown, im not sure if that is supposed to be like that or if it said PulseAudio before. There aren't even all my devices in the playback tab. Same goes for the recording device selection, but the loopback device I need to record from is there, so that works.



      preferences



      But now I wanted to playback sound from audacity too and it just doesn't work anymore. It doesn't list my USB playback device and when I set it to sysdefault I just get an error.



      $ pulseaudio -v
      pulseaudio 12.2
