Playing back audio from Audacity audio editor

Last time I had Fedora (Linux) was version 8 and I had connected a headphone mic to it and was able to record audio into this UNIX workstation.

Cool stuff.

But I lost the program when I upgraded to Fedora 10.

This program Audacity has been around for about 16 years or more and is available for Linux, Mac and Windows.

The problem I have had in getting it working is not in the recording of audio from a mic, but in the playback. The settings is for the Alsa AC'97 output but it really should be set to Alsa:pulse or Alsa:default.

Now it works again and I'm interested in doing some audio commentary for truwinnipeg.org in the next while.
