audio-record: request-type: auto-connection reasoning: Recording audio is the fundamental core functionality of this offline multitrack recorder. It directly mandates the audio-record interface to safely capture standard PulseAudio/PipeWire microphone inputs and instrument lines out of the box.
alsa: request-type: auto-connection reasoning: The application is powered by a gaming-grade C++ audio engine (miniaudio/SoLoud) to deliver ultra-low-latency monitoring and track synchronization calibrators for professional USB mixers. During strict confinement testing, we found that without ALSA low-level mapping, the C++ engine is entirely blinded by ‘Permission Denied’, failing to discover even basic diverse HDMI output cards and strict-timing latency paths. We’ve purposefully stripped all network adapters and observers from the package to keep the surface minimal, purely safe, and strictly audio-centric.
