I'm posting this in case anyone needs this information in the future. It may save someone else some work. I've been helping someone to listen to librivox books on a talking book player; they're commonly used by people who are blind or partially sighted. The device plays files stored on a USB memory ...

You may have got 'overdub' turned on by accident. Check Edit > Preferences > Recording > Play other tracks while recording

Spitfish is a rather old plugin - I'm fairly certain it's only available in a 32-bit version. You're almost certainly using the 64-bit version of Audacity, which isn't compatible.
