Bug Description
I recently upgraded my laptop to Ubuntu 20.04 (from 19.10), which I use for recording podcasts using Audacity.
The Sound Settings allow me to select the Yeti, and the monitor graphic shows lots of activity when I scratch the mic with my nails.
Since the upgrade Audacity will only record from the built in mic. It's not available as a recording input at all, and selecting "default" (which is what I usually do) uses the inbuilt mic. Regardless of what the Sound Settings have selected.
I tried Ardour and I could only get it to record using the built in mic. While I can select the Yeti when I start the app, I can't get it to actually register that any sound is coming in at all.
I tried gnome-sound-
arecord also works with issue.
I'm kinda going insane here, I've never had any issues like this before, but it suddenly seems that any halfway decent recording apps just don't want to talk to the Yeti.
Is there something I'm missing, has something changed in how 20.04 handles sound devices now? Is there anything I can do to trouble shoot this?
