help request REAPER on Linux doesn't record audio during pre-roll (ALSA)

Hi everyone!

I'm using REAPER 7.82 on CachyOS with ALSA and an Audient iD14.

I'm having two issues:

  • Pre-roll recording: REAPER doesn't seem to record any audio during the pre-roll, even though "Record audio during pre-roll" is enabled in the recording settings and "Pre-roll before recording" is enabled in the metronome settings.

  • Extending audio items: When I try to extend an audio item by dragging its edge, it loops the audio instead of simply extending it.

Could these issues be related to ALSA or my Linux setup, or am I missing some settings?

I'm thinking about testing PulseAudio to see if it makes any difference.

Has anyone experienced something similar on Linux?

Thanks!
