Hello,
Would you like to test the recording in a terminal window (command line).
It is easy to do.

Goto [Additional settings], "Recording commands" and use the [Show cmd]
button to display the actual Gstreamer-pipeline that does the recording.
Then run the shown pipeline in a terminal window. This how you can easily
DEBUG and learn more about the recording formats and devices.

Take also listing of your audio devices. Then use correct device in the
recording command.
The [Show cmd] dialog gives you instructions about the "pactl list"
command.

Please see also (more instructions):

and

Please tell me about your findings.
