I can't seem to get my computer to record the audio from an application... Sound Recorder, Audacity, and outRec all output files but they are just silence, even though when I see them in a media player they show the visualizations.

I have followed a couple guides to no avail. Hopefully someone can help me out!

Thanks

I just gave that a try but 2 things:
1. When I go to System>Preferences>Sound, I do not see an option anywhere for Pulse Audio
2. I went on with the guide anyway, however I played things through a few applications and it did not show up in the Pulse Volume Meter

It's changed a bit. Try this in a terminal:

gstreamer-properties
