Description:
Audacity: cannot generate any tone, chirp or pluck sound.

Additional info:
* package version(s): 1:3.3.0-1

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start audacity and attempt to generate a sound such as a Tone.
2. The dialog will appear, but there will be no way to enter Tone duration. Only a grey bar exists where one would assume the field would be.
With very careful mouse cursor positioning, the grey bar can be made to become a white field as if a very small input field, but nothing can be typed in.

Attached is a screenshot of the dialog as it appears, with its missing duration field.
This task depends upon

Yeah, can repro. To be honest, the whole thing seemed a bit unstable while testing in a fresh VM. Unsure where the problem lies (wxwidgets?) or whether it's an upstream issue or not.

@IMBJR: Thanks for the report.

It's likely an upstream issue. Would be great if you could report it there.
