Hi Peter, |
| 30 |
Sorry for the problems. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Please provide info about your setup such as desktop environment and |
| 33 |
how you set up your sound system. ALSA? pulseaudio? Something else? |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
I have a new machine in which I have not yet used a previously working |
| 36 |
USB sound device - a gen 3 Focusrite Scarlett 2/2. I'm happy to invest |
| 37 |
a little time to bring it up sooner vs later if there's a way to help. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Cheers, |
| 40 |
