I don't know about VLC, but Audacity is using portaudio and portaudio's
JACK wrapper.

We could petition for "proper" JACK support in Audacity, but that'd
involve to directly add JACK to Audacity and bypass the portaudio
abstraction or to work-around the issue in in portaudio's JACK hostapi.
Likely, Audacity-devs are not prepared to do either :(

Are any Audacity developers subscribed here to comment on the issue?

Is anyone subscribed at http://audacity.sourceforge.net/contact/lists
to forward this bug-report/feature-request? Has it been reported before?
