Can you provide more details about your configuration and/or > hardware? I believe I encountered the same behavior you are reporting with wsjtx 2.5.0+repack-1. wsjtx receives audio as expected, but nothing is generated during transmit or tune, and PTT (via CAT for my rig) doesn't even switch my radio into TX. This same version and configuration of wsjtx worked correctly a week ago. I run testing/unstable and update every few days, so my initial thought was that the change in behavior was due to an apt update of the system. I tried reconfiguring and reinstalling wsjtx, and then uninstalling pulseaudio, to no effect. However, rebuilding wsjtx against unstable in a clean chroot and installing the resulting deb results in a fully functioning wsjtx again. At this point, I couldn't tell you whether it is library dependency of wsjtx or something in the build environment that has changed and is addressed by the rebuild. However, it is reproducible - meaning my locally build .deb works consistently, and reinstalling the .deb from the archive (I believe generated by this build [1]) fails to generate TX audio. I am tempted to upload a new source package to trigger a rebuild to see if that solves the problem with the deb in the archive. Perhaps wsjtx got caught up in a transition causing this subtle failure? Christoph or Dave, do you have any suggestions on how to track down the root cause? Thank you, tony [1] https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=wsjtx&arch=armhf&ver=2.5.0%2Brepack-1&stamp=1632820833&raw=0
