I can not record desktop audio. Not using Audacity, nor any screen capturing programs, nor any command line tools.... nothing will record my desktop audio. Time after time it will record off my laptop's onboard mic, but never the straight audio from the desktop. I have messed with every combination of sound program output / recording input to no avail. Seriously, I have tried *EVERYTHING*.
From the general feel of it I have an idea that it most likely is a driver issue. Specifically, everything lists my HDMI controller first, which is strange as I have never used HDMI out on this machine. An example -
