I haven't used audacity in a long time, but on my Fedora 32, in Edit ->
Preferences -> Devices, the HOST is set to ALSA and there doesn't seem to
be a way to change it.  But Playback Device and Recording Device both have
a "pulse option".  Have you tried those?

The Audacity tutorial says
(https://ttmanual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tutorial_selecting_your_input.html)
that "An audio host is an interface between Audacity and the sound card
driver.  ... In Linux there is often only one option: ALSA, other options
could be OSS and/or Jack Audio Connection Kit (also known as "Jack" or
"Jackd")."  So HOST is not where you'd make any changes.
