Yes, this bug is the Ubuntu bug #662077 [1], which I accidentally
reintroduced by fixing bug #996407 [2]. I intend to fix bug #662077 by
reverting the patches for bug #996407. Then bug #996407 should be fixed
without regressions. This is on my todo list, but volunteers are
welcome.

Yes, I am not subscribed to audacity-quality. Should I?
