How to debug nDAX rx audio problem

wa1hco

Installed nCAT and nDAX on Ubuntu 24.04 and it _almost_ works
nCAT setup on slice A
WSJTX points to port 4532, able to change freq and tx
WSJTX sees audo devices flex.sliceA.rx and flexr.sliceA.tx
PAVUcontrol sees flex input and output devices "FLEX-8600M slice A {RX TX}"
WSJTX Tune button keys transmit and generates tone and power

BUT,
WSJTX sees zero rx audio level
pavucontrol device input audio level on flex.sliceA.rx is zero

SOME Debuggin Info,
starting nDAX causes rx audio to come out the radio's speaker
../nDAX -station FLEX-8600M -slice A -daxch 1 -log-level trace -source flex.sliceA.rx -sink flex.sliceA.t
able to control RF and AF levels in the speaker via rigctl level commands

SOME trace from nDAX startup

9:48PM DBG found PulseAudio server version version=15.0.0

QUESTION, does any of this lead to the source of the problem and either how to fix it or how to debug further?

thanks

Mike suggested opening a support ticket. Ticket was immediately closed due to unsupported system (linux). Thanks guys /s

So need to ask again for suggestions for debugging nDAX seeming to work but audio level is zero. Details in the original post.

Jeff, have you tried contacting the developer of nDAX? That might be the best way to get help with the problem you are having.
