When using musescore, I'm trying to follow how-to videos found on YouTube. However, I find that when musescore is open, videos are paused or there is no sound. As soon as I turn off musescore, video playback resumes.
Am I falling victim mechanisms designed to prevent digital copying? I'm not trying to steal anything or download YT videos. I'm trying to follow along to how-to videos to better learn piece of software.
Question: How can I follow along to how to videos online on the same machine? That is, how can I follow along to these videos and have Musescore open at the same time? Are browsers "protecting" content from being recorded? Should I switch Musescore to ALSA or PULSE?
Note: I'm NOT looking to circumvent DRM. I'm just want to follow along a how-to video.
The OP suggested I put my comment as an answer. Which I was reluctant to do, but it's probably better for archiving purposes. At least if no other answer comes along.
I suggest switching to ALSA first, and if it doesn't work, then PULSE. JACK might be locking access to the audio device, or it could be a routing path issue.
