I haven't used audacity in a long time, but on my Fedora 32, in Edit -> Preferences -> Devices, the HOST is set to ALSA and there doesn't seem to be a way to change it. But Playback Device and Recording Device both have a "pulse option". Have you tried those? The Audacity tutorial says (https://ttmanual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tutorial_selecting_your_input.html) that "An audio host is an interface between Audacity and the sound card driver. ... In Linux there is often only one option: ALSA, other options could be OSS and/or Jack Audio Connection Kit (also known as "Jack" or "Jackd")." So HOST is not where you'd make any changes.
