Put shortly: I bought a new microphone, plugged it into the comp, when I record (via Audacity or even in the Skype Test Call), the recording is very, very slow-- meaning that playback is played at 200% (or more, not exactly sure) speed.
I'm also having a thing where, when the microphone is plugged in, I can't type (no keyboard keys work; Tab, space, ctrl+z, letters-- all nonfunctional), and I can't open drop-down menus (for example, the "File" or "Edit" things at the top of a window, or the menu to select whether I want to record in mono or stereo).
Help?
Running Ubuntu Linux (which dist, I'm not sure), playing with a Blue brand Yeti mic.
Also bought it used, so that might be a factor.
