| Many upgrades and kernel versions after I last ran audacity,
| (now using ASLA with OSS emumation and gstreamer) I tried running
| audacity again and now I get an error message:
|
|   There was an error intiializing the audio i/o layer.
|   You will not be able to play or record audio.
|
|   Error: Host error
|
| Then in the Audacity Preferences dialog under "i/o devices"
| there are *no devices* shown for either "Playback" or
| "Recording" devices.  The dialog *does not* allow the user
| text input to manually enter the device name, but apparently
| insists on having "discovered" any devices beforehand.  The dialogs
| show no conception of OSS or ALSA.  The man page does not shed any
| light on these problems.  A web search proved fruitless.
|
| All my other sound apps work fine, either thru ALSA or OSS emulation
| (xmms, xawtv, gmplayer, ogle, and many many more).
|
| Any help, speculation or random guesses are much appreciated.

Audacity, at least the one I'm using (ver. 1.2.3) wants /dev/dsp as its
i/o device. Have you got that?
Cheers,
Jonathan
