Hi Gale, yes, the observations were about wdm-ks. There seems to be an intermittent gremlin in the works somewhere, David. ----- Original Message ----- From: Gale Andrews <gale@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: audacity4blind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Sent: Tuesday, 10 September 2013, 16:05 Subject: [audacity4blind] Re: getting and Error. | From David Bailes <david_bailes@xxxxxxxxxxx> | Tue, 10 Sep 2013 14:44:59 +0100 (BST) | Subject: getting and Error. > Hi Matt, > I'm getting the same error from time.

A few people have said that you need to select the WDM-KS input in Device Toolbar (even if it's already selected) to stop the "error opening" (though I don't see that). One person said you had to do this with MME, but I think he may have a broken sound card driver. If I recall, OK'ing Preferences even without making changes will have the effect of exercising the device lists, so that might be the explanation of what you're seeing.
