from their website:
Q: When the turntable is connected to my computer, I get no sound, either from Audacity or any of my other programs. Why?
A: When you first connect the turntable, Windows XP (and Mac OSX) will often select the "USB Audio Codec" as the audio input and output for your entire system. Since your turntable does not have speakers, audio will not be heard from your programs until you tell Windows not to use the turntable as an output device. Here’s how to change these settings so that your internal sound card will always be used for playback whether or not your TTUSB is connected via USB:
1. For Windows: On the bottom left of your screen, select the "Start" menu.
2. Select "Settings" then "Control Panel".
3. In the window that opens, select the "Sounds and Audio Devices" icon. (If you don’t see a choice called "Sounds and Audio Devices," choose the "Switch to Classic View" option in the panel on the left of the window, and the "Sounds and Audio Devices" icon should become available in the list on the left.
4. Select the "Audio" Tab at the top of the "Sounds and Audio Devices" control panel window.
5. Under "Sound Playback," choose your internal sound card as the default device. This varies by computer but should not be set to "USB Audio Codec" or "Microsoft Sound Mapper".
6. Under "Sound Recording," select "USB Audio Codec" for your default device.
7. Check the box titled "Use only default devices".
8. Click "Apply"...then "OK".
1. For Mac: Open your Hard Disk.
2. Open your "Applications" folder.
3. In the "Applications" folder, open the "Utilities" folder.
4. In the "Utilities" folder, open the "Audio MIDI Setup".
5. In the "Audio MIDI Setup" under Audio Devices, set:
* "Default Input" to "USB Audio Codec"
* "Default Output" to "Built In Audio"
* "System Output" to "Built in Audio"
Now, all programs, including Audacity, will only use your internal sound card for audio output.

next faq down
Q: I have selected my computer’s sound card for playback, and the "USB Audio Codec" for recording in Audacity’s preferences screen, but the turntable’s sound is still not playing through my speakers. What now?
A: All that is left to do is to tell Audacity that you want it to play any sound from the turntable out through your soundcard’s speakers. This option is called "Monitor Input." Here’s how to find and enable it:
Next to the round playback control buttons you should see the Input and Output meters. They are each labeled with "L" and "R." Underneath the "L" and "R" labels of the input level meter, you will see a small icon that looks like a microphone (see the picture below). To the right of this icon is a black arrow that points downward. Click this arrow, and select "Monitor Input." The input level meters should now be active, and you should hear sound when you play your turntable.

too tired to care......
Well I just got mine yesterday and I am having the same problem as well; I did pretty much what you advised him to do;. My situation is slighy different in that my Roland Edirol UA-4aFX acts as my soundcard/interface, and I have never used Audicity before. What can I do to get it to play, and also to play in Acid Music Studio/Soundforge, or do I have to use Audicity to hear/record the vinyl playing?

I don't know if soundforge will work, i dont used it. But i think it should. So what audio device did you select? I guess plan b, would be recording wavs in audacity, then import them into soundforge.
