* After adding a label at the playback position and confirming with

ENTER, using an unmodified shortcut to stop or pause will not do

so, but will write a label at the cursor position. Workaround:

use up arrow instead of ENTER to confirm the label.

* Playback and Recording:

|

must restart Audacity to enable it to recognize that device

default when using Audacity, but please let us know if this affects
|

you so we can track down and solve the problem.
|

* (Linux) Audacity now supports interfacing with JACK, but this has

not been tested, and has a number of known reliability and usability

issues: patches to improve both will be welcomed

* (Linux) In projects containing several hundred labels or more,

Audacity may appear to freeze on 100% CPU when performing effects
|
||||
or other actions. Since this problem may affect only the first

||||
label track in a project, you can work around it by adding an empty
