Public bug reported:

To duplicate problem... attach Line in to back panel.  Set Audacity to
record from line in.  turn on : show clipping and software playthrough.
Start recording ... continue for several minutes... sometimes seconds
can be enough.  Push STOP button.  Wait a few seconds and screen will
turn GREY and all functions will get locked out except for the MENU at
the top of the screen which will show all options but will not allow
selection of any options or actions.

Only solution is to force quit the application.  After which on the
subsequent restart Audacity advises the application was not closed
properly and offers to save the temporary file it has recovered with the
recording.

Problem repeats on the next recording attempt.  Audacity was installed
from the Ubuntu Software Centre.

I expected that I could stop recording and then play back the passage
and edit it... eventually saving it.
