I just noticed that the XDG menu has an Exec line rezound --audio- method=jack. However, if jack is not started, you get the same behaviour, rezound crashes on trying to record. How on earth are users supposed to know that jackd is needed for Rezound? Better really fix this issue.
As for me, i'm using a script /usr/local/bin/fix-rezound, may be of interest to others, as long as this bug is not fixed by Ubuntu: Open a terminal: ALT+F2 gnome-terminal Start a text editor: sudo gedit /usr/local/bin/fix-rezound Write the script: #!/bin/bash jackd -d alsa & sleep 1 rezound --audio-method=jack killall jackd exit 0 Make it executable: sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/fix-rezound Then copy /usr/share/applications/audacity.desktop to ~/.local/applications/audacity.desktop, open it with a text editor and change "Exec=rezound --audio-method=jack" to "Exec=fix-rezound" -- Crashes when trying to record (Segmentation Fault) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/64630 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
