Hi @georges,

I recorded a Loom with a bit of background: https://www.loom.com/share/a39f60315b0e4dcfaa35008a913e893c?sid=3ec23670-a988-4538-89a5-3702525e8857

I'm observing that when VARA is spawned by varanny, the audio input appears to be muted. A couple Qs:

Does varanny change the mixer settings for Alsa devices?
Have you seen anything similar before?

I figured it out! It was actually a CAT control misconfiguration on my part. My rig needed a different PTT configuration. Thank goodness it wasn't something more spooky!
