I just upgraded to 17.3 on my Linux system and was excited to find this in the release notes:
Native Linux audio recording support using ALSA inputs.
Wow! So, I fired up a new project, dropped in an Adjustment clip (so I had an available but empty audio track), and rushed into the Fairlight tab. I patched the ALSA inputs into track 1. I armed the track, crossed my fingers and pressed record.
No waveform. No audio.
I opened Audacity and made sure audio was working (which it was), and went back to Resolve, trying every patch option I could poke at. Nothing.
I feel like I'm missing something -- are there any instructions for getting this going? I've been waiting for this for years, and was excited to see it!
