Bug Description

I tried opening Software and searching for Audacity and clicking Install. It installed the snap package. When I click launch, it flashes the audacity logo and then snap sits in the background using 100% CPU until I manually kill it. Perhaps it'd be better if the default was to install the apt package, which works just fine.
