can't replicate that, sorry. there's no "multimedia section" in my app menu. In System Settings I can see Hardware>Audio or Multimedia, but there seems to be nothing there of help.
all i can do is "right-click on sound icon (on desktop/taskbar) > PulseAudio control > Recording. Now, if this is the only solution, it's a rather messy one, i'm afraid: the only way to bring up the settings for the recording device is to click on "Start Recording" (on AudioRecorder)...except that AudioRecorder then starts recording through the Pc's mic. By the time I've switched (in PulseAudio) from "built-in audio analogue stereo" to "monitor of built-in audio analogue stereo", AudioRecorder has already created a file (sound recorded through the mic). The moment I click on "Stop Recording" (on AudioRecorder) the recording settings on PulsueAudio disappear, and I'm back to square one.
so my question is: since I am not interested in using the PC's mic, how can I make sure that the recording source is permanently set on "monitor of built-in audio analogue stereo"?
