I have a weird problem. my sound card worked fine for playing and recording in 20.04. it is the built in sound card from realtek listed as Family 17h in the sound settings. in 20.04 I was able to play through speakers and headphones and also record audio through the soundcard. I upgraded to 20.10, clean installs twice thinking I did something wrong, I can play music through the speakers and headphones but the VU meter in the sound settings that normally showed activity in 20.04 shows nothing for the analog soundcard now. The strange thing is if I use OBS studio I am able to record audio through the soundcard but not using Audacity any longer which is really weird since OBS is using the same soundcard shown in the sound settings under Ubuntu. Any idea why the soundcard recording works with OBS but not Ubuntu itself?
