Similarly it's not possible to start audacity-2.4 from the Start Button on the Panel.I don't have the problem with xv, which I also build from source and placed in ~/bin .Did you edit the audacity menu item in the KDE Menu (Lower Left) to point to your version? And, if you had a favorite item defined previously for audacity, did you delete that as well?
I would think that audacity and audacity-2.4 are different programs, despite the similarity of their names. However if I rename audacity-2.4 as fred ($ mv audacity-2.4 fred) things work properly.
Audacity is not a favorite. The strangest thing is that when I attempt to start audacity-2.4 from dolphin , "Other Applications" shows audacity-2.4 as a possible choice, but when I click on it audacity (not audacity-2.4) starts.
