Hi, audacity has never worked but I need it for my job and I would like to have it working on my daily-driver, does anybody know of the issue that I'm having?
I always get the same loud static when recording anything at all from any mic. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?
Because I keep getting this error but I'm not quite sure how to resolve this:
The wiki gets a little dense here, but if you manage to stick with it this page describes how to change the sample rate in PipeWire: PipeWire - ArchWiki
The issue still persists but sample rate is no longer the problem

This is not an issue with audacity I don't think because Discord has the same issue, but only more recently
I've looked across multiple forums of arch based distros and only found solutions to my type of problem involving the playing of audio, not the recording. Again, I must reinstate that is not a problem with AUDACITY but system wide. This was not always the case but now the issue is system wide.
