What are you using for the soundcard to record audio?
Sounds like you may have a different driver for playback than record (?)

options-preferences-audio tab- drivers
The input and output should match.
Make sure the soundcard itself is selected, not soundmapper.. and use the 'move selected device to top' button so it becomes the default input.

Just a couple things to try.

Using MME or ASIO drivers?


I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
