There are two places in pavucontrol where you will need to verify things. Under the "Output Devices" tab, some of the outputs may have a "Port" dropdown selector. Generally you will not need to adjust this. The one that says "Headphones (unplugged)" is referring to your motherboard's built-in sound card, and it is correctly detecting that there is nothing plugged into the 3.5mm jack on the motherboard. The "Logitach H5703 Stereo Analog Stereo" device is the important one, and it should be left on its default port selection of "Headphones." Also verify that the device is not muted, and that the volume slider is at a reasonable position. Under the "Playback" tab, there will be a list of programs currently playing sound. If there are none, start up an application and get it playing something. Now, next to the title of each application, there is an unlabeled dropdown box that shows which sound device the application is currently playing to. Find the actively-playing application and switch its dropdown to the "Logitach H5703 Stereo Analog Stereo" option. --Sean _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
