Here you have a sample: *** http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup#Audacity Audacity doesn't support PulseAudio, nor Esound for the moment. You'll have to kill or suspend pulseaudio before you use this application. Audacity uses the PortAudio cross-platform Audio API which doesnt support pulseaudio. Some work was started on making portaudio support PulseAudio but this does not appear to be under active development currently and does not work in it's current state. Audacity can use OSS for sound input and sound output. By changing the 2 settings in preferences to /dev/dsp, and running audacity as padsp audacity you route OSS sound through pulseaudio and can have successful playback and recording with audacity. You could also set the sound input to be ALSA which (for regular users) is less likely to be blocked by another application, as recording with multiple applications at once is less commonly done Using pasuspender to momentarily suspend pulseaudio is another way to use Audacity. pasuspender -- audacity <argument> *** Maybe you can apply something similar for your aplication.
