And what are you outputting sound to. I can use a library, or just
subprocess and aplay from alsa on linux. This is just command line,
until I understand ctypes more. You can also record this way, but
pause would would require appending one to the other, which would
require something else.

But you could go commandline with subprocess or move and understand c
and ctypes.
