Audacity crashes when trying to listen to play back and current track.

Hello,

When I try to have a track recording and one playing back audacity crashes. When I try to listen to what i'm playing and record at the same time it also crashes. This is an arch 64 system, I get no errors dumped to a terminal or in the kernel logs but it does occasionally complain about some latency problem.

Anybody had any trouble or have any ideas how to fix this. Or alternatively what's everybody else using for recording guitars etc.

Re: Audacity crashes when trying to listen to play back and current track.

I've been using traverso-git 20090603-1 and have had no problems, x86_64 and Openbox.  But I only have maybe 2 hours total using it for recording, 10-15 minutes at a time.  I have enjoyed using it as an editor, with much more time on it.

Audacity's alsa support is a bit hit-and-miss. I use it with Jack's alsa plugin and it works, but the pulse alsa plugin crashes on my laptop but works fine on my desktop. Go figure. If it doesn't like your settings it just crashes.
