Hi, Joel!
Thanks a lott for your help!
I just realized that if I wait 15-20 seconds after starting the play,
the sound is heard. Strange.
That is curious. Does the WAV file play from the beginning when you
hear it, or is the position already 15-20 seconds into the
recording?
The position is moving, so it's e.g. at 40 seconds. It seems that the first
seconds of playing (although it's silent), moves faster than the real time.
So if I press space and wait 1 sec. before stopping, the posistion is moved
let's say 30 secs forward.
Did you edit $HOME/.namarc ? It's not clearly documented, but
the frequency: entry in the abbreviations section
should be set to the sample rate of your soundcard.
It looks like default namarc defaults to 44100.
The template is taken from config item raw_to_disk_format.
That would affect how import-audio works.
What kind of audio environment ? Possibly pulseaudio running?
Other ecasound processes?
If you want to monitor ecasound closely, start
ecasound in a separate terminal as:
ecasound -c --server --server-tcp-port=2868 -d
( -dd gives more debug output -ddd even more.)
Then start Nama, and it will connect to the
existing process, which will scroll
with debugging information while Nama runs.
And/or you can start Nama with -L ECI to
see the ecasound commands.
You can run ecasound diagnostic commands from the Nama
prompt: fs,
es,
cs.
These are the lowest level of
clarifying what ecasound is doing.
There are commands for positioning an audio clip (aka WAV
file aka RIFF), for defining, positioning and processing
regions of an audio clip, and for fades, all that might
be able to cause what you've observed.
So, it may be you may have accomplished something
unwittingly :-) Or perhaps the software is developing
sentience 8-)
The Nama command '3 show-track' should indicate if there
is a region or shift (position offset) involved.

No output.
The es command outputs

I tried the bypass command:
nama lotta1 l1 > bypass
track
l1
, bypassing effects:

Despite the warning bypass-effect (bfx) and
bring-back-effect (bbfx) appear to work in my test. Like
you, I saw the BYPASSED indicator in the Ecasound 'es'
output, and also confirmed the status of the bypassed flag
in Nama's corresponding effect object.
With `ecasound -c Setup.ecs', it starts to play immediately if I type
start. Also if I use setpos to enter a new position beforehand.
What do you observe when using setpos in Nama? Does it affect the delay?
No.
Please post the result of the command "3 dump" in this
project.
