Hi guys,

I'm getting the following error message when I try to activate recording
on an audio track:

"audio subsystem not available - can't record audio"

in a window that has the header:

Rosegarden (as superuser)

This is happening with Rosegarden Version 23.06 "Flutterbye"
Build Key 13280f9033
Qt Version 5.15.9

Running under Pop!_OS 20.10 Linux with
QjackCtl Version 0.5.0
Qsynth Version 0.6.3
Using FluidSynth 2.1.3

QjackCtl and Qsynth are working and sound fine.  Qsynth's audio outputs
show up on QjackCtl's patchbay but no audio inputs to Rosegarden appear.
All the MIDI ins and outs seem to be working fine.

The "self-recording" feature of Rosegarden used to work.  Is this a bug?
Is there a workaround?  I used to use it to record (with perfect
synchronization) track by track, and sometimes double track, various
patches and synths.

Thanks for all you do, and in advance,

Hmm, my understanding is that the general recommendation is that
Rosegarden (and other audio applications) *should not be run as
superuser*. In other words, create an ordinary user login and use that.

In general, running as superuser is a great big security hole...


That is the funny thing, I am logged in as an ordinary user.  I have no
idea how the superuser designation got in there.  Fortunately that machine
is not regularly connected to the internet.

Not sure, then, but maybe it was run one time as superuser???

I just tried mine, it doesn't show Superuser, but I'm only showing 20.12 for reason, I thought I had 22.something on here...Well, just grabbed 23.12 source, compiled and run... still doesn't show as superuser.

Just tried running it as superuser via sudo rosegarden - still no sign of "superuser" in the terminal title...

I'm running Debian 11 with the XFCE desktop. Maybe it's something connected with your distro/desktop environment???
