It's possible that more than one different product used the same electronic parts, so you may get naming you don't expect. Some hardware may name itself (it may supply data when probed). > Why does Built-in Audio Pro appear twice? > What's the difference between "Built-in Audio Pro 1" and "Built-in > Audio Pro 2"? I don't know why there's two, but it could be front panel socket versus back panel socket (or different connectors on the motherboard, if you can only see rear-panel sockets). If they're another USB audio device, it could be that they support two different methods of audio use. > What are the "Profiles"? Different ways of using some hardware. Some audio cards have analogue and digital (e.g. SPDIF) outputs (yours appears to). They may only be able to use one of them at a time. There may be no way for the OS to tell which one you've connected, they may use the same jack for different purposes, so you get to choose. > What is the function of the circles with dots, which look like radio > buttons, but can't be because two of them are selected. The are radio buttons, the top section (above the line) is selecting one of three speaker outputs, and the bottom section is selecting one of two audio inputs. Ignore that it's using a mike symbol, it doesn't have to be a *microphone* input. Likewise with using a speaker symbol to represent output. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.71.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 28 15:37:28 UTC 2022 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
