No audio was produced. This should have worked, if you have a speaker connected to the out port on the on board sound device (the green one). Headphones will also work. To pursue this further, start pavucontrol-pulseaudio, go to the third tab, output devices, and run the above command again. Do you see sound being sent to the device? Do you hear it? If you do, your sound is working, but you have a configuration issue If you don't, go to the last tab of pavucontrol-pulseaudio, and turn off the built in audio. Run the above command again. Is there sound? Yes? The problem is in pipewire. No, maybe the volume isn't high enough. Run alsamixer -c 2 and raise the volume on the first bars until they are just in the red. Then, run the above command again. Is there sound? Yes? Sound is working but somehow the volumes were too low. No? I'm out of ideas. Given the data you showed, the built in audio should be producing sound if everything is configured properly (as I've described). You can set up and try a new user, but be sure that you have logged out your current user before you try with the new user. The first user to log in gains total control over pipewire / pulseaudio unless it is being run as a server, which is not the default. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
