Hi, using Kubuntu 25.04, I found, that the version of kdenlive coming as a snap (packaged by kde), doesn't find my microphone when trying to create a voiceover (settings / record / audio / device) and thus can't record voiceovers, while the older version coming with ubuntu as a debian package can (but has other problems like missing dependencies, why I would prefer the snap here).
Can you please type sudo snap connect kdenlive:audio-record :audio-record into a terminal and let me know if this fixes the problem.
No, doesn't solve. The regular debian-packaged version /usr/bin/kdenlive offers in Settings -> Configure kdenlive... -> Capture -> Audio two options: Internal Audio Analog Stereo and the USB microphone with its name. The snap version offers only one: Default ALSA Output (currently PulseAudio Sound Server) So it smells as if the ubuntu version coming as a debian package connects to hardware, while the snap version connects to PulseAudio Server. regards # snap connections | fgrep kdenlive audio-playback kdenlive:audio-playback :audio-playback - audio-record kdenlive:audio-record :audio-record - content[ffmpeg-2404] kdenlive:ffmpeg-2404 ffmpeg-2404:ffmpeg-2404 - content[gpu-2404] kdenlive:gpu-2404 mesa-2404:gpu-2404 - content[gtk-2-themes] kdenlive:gtk-2-themes gtk-common-themes:gtk-2-themes - content[gtk-2-themes] kdenlive:gtk-2-themes gtk-theme-breeze:gtk-2-themes - content[gtk-3-themes] kdenlive:gtk-3-themes gtk-common-themes:gtk-3-themes - content[gtk-3-themes] kdenlive:gtk-3-themes gtk-theme-breeze:gtk-3-themes - content[icon-themes] kdenlive:icon-themes gtk-common-themes:icon-themes - content[icon-themes] kdenlive:icon-themes icon-theme-breeze:icon-themes - content[kf6-core24-all] kdenlive:kf6-core24 kf6-core24:kf6-core24-slot - content[sound-themes] kdenlive:sound-themes gtk-common-themes:sound-themes - desktop kdenlive:desktop :desktop - desktop-legacy kdenlive:desktop-legacy :desktop-legacy - home kdenlive:home :home - network kdenlive:network :network - network-bind kdenlive:network-bind :network-bind - opengl kdenlive:opengl :opengl - removable-media kdenlive:removable-media :removable-media - system-observe kdenlive:system-observe :system-observe - unity7 kdenlive:unity7 :unity7 - wayland kdenlive:wayland :wayland - x11 kdenlive:x11 :x11 - zsh reise10#
