ALSA Restore Service not restoring Sound correctly

Support Sound
, , ,
1

Hey guys,

I have installed Manjaro GNOME on my desktop pc with 5.14.7-2 kernel version (dual boot with windows 10, fastboot disabled). I have plugged in speakers on the back of my case and headphones on the front panel. Also my monitor has built-in speakers which are connected via DisplayPort. Now to the problem:

The speakers are always muted when I start manjaro. I have to manually run alsamixer select my audio card and unmute “Front”. Then it works normally. Saving alsa settings with alsactl store does not work, I don’t get any error but speaker sound is muted again after reboot (running alsamixer or alsactl store or both as su, doesn’t change anything).

When I run sudo alsactl restore manually, it successfully restores the settings, but I get the following warning/error messages:

alsa-lib parser.c:242:(error_node) UCM is not supported for this HDA model (HD-Audio Generic at 0xfc400000 irq 81)
alsa-lib main.c:1405:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:0 use case configuration -6

This is my hardware:

Mainboard Gigabyte Aorus Pro AX (Audio Chip: ALC1220)
Processor AMD Ryzen 5600x

This is the inxi -aA result:

Has anybody an idea what the exact problem could be?
I think it’s kinda related to this topic: “Alsa-restore is driving me crazy” (cannot copy a link, sorry). The solution/workaround suggested is not working for me unfortunately.Dieser Text wird ausgeblendet

can you try

alsactl init

I’ve got the exact same problem since a few weeks : I have to manually execute sudo alsactl restore after each reboot to unmute the front speakers. This happened after a normal packages update (wouldn’t be able to tell which particular update triggered this issue).

I use the onboard sound card of my mainboard (Intel PCH) :

cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [PCH ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
HDA Intel PCH at 0xf7230000 irq 41

2 [C920 ]: USB-Audio - HD Pro Webcam C920

It seems that the service alsa-restore is not doing its job despite saying otherwise :

systemctl status alsa-restore.service

Here is the ouput of alsactl init :

a work around could be to put the restore command to autostart

It didn’t change anything unfortunately.

@darkcity : I tried that already but somehow it also does not work. I created a .desktop file inside of ~/.config/autostart with the following content:

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Exec=sleep 10 && alsactl --file /home/chris/.config/asound.state restore
Hidden=false
NoDisplay=false
X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true
Name[de_DE]=Manuelles Wiederherstellen der ALSA-Einstellungen
Name=Manual Alsa Settings Restore
Comment[de_DE]=
Comment=

It’s weird because when I run the command in terminal it just works fine. My ImWheel.desktop file looks the same, is in the same directory has the same access rights and works. Has somebody a clue what’s wrong with the .desktop file?

6

I think it is because commands in Exec= aren’t executed in the same way as I line of bash in the terminal or a script file.

As per

https://askubuntu.com/questions/461434/lubuntu-how-to-execute-2-commands-in-desktop-file

So in your case something like

Exec=sh -c "sleep 10 && alsactl --file /home/chris/.config/asound.state restore"

I also have the same issue, but with a Creative AE-5 Soundcard:

Thanks, atleast the workaround seems to work for now.

I don’t know if I should mark your answer as the solution or if I should let the thread open since it’s “just” a workaround.

I’d let the thread continue, as a there is probably someone who can explain why the problem is happening.

Have you tried clearing file /var/lib/alsa/asound.state?
Removing old ALSA state file (asound.state) –Advanced Linux Sound Architecture/Troubleshooting
It might help to retain file /etc/alsa/state-daemon.conf to prevent system saving changes to ALSA settings during shutdown

Please post data to show ALSA audio settings for both

  1. non-working state after system booted
  2. corrected state with speakers unmuted
amixer --card=1

I’ve just joined the forums as I’ve been having the same problems as the OP. System is a Ryzen 3900X, Gigabyte X470 Aorus Gaming 7 wifi and a RTX3080. Like the OP I dual boot with Windows 10, but I have to run alsamixer and unmute.

Output from amixer with the audio working (despite the mixer control being ‘headphone’ I actually have speakers connected to the audio line out on my motherboard). When I run alsamixer, the default ‘card’ is PulseAudio, F6 and choose card 1, the onboard sound. Then I unmute the ‘headphone’ channel and raise the volume, exit alsamixer and sound works:

Is it an issue with Pulseaudio muting Alsa or is there an issue with the Realtek ALC1220 in Manjaro?

Thanks for any help, I’d really like to not have to run alsamixer to fix it!

12

ALSA settings in amixer show that Auto-Mute Mode is enabled, and that might be causing the headphone jack to be muted when system is booted

Auto-Mute Mode is useful for laptop syatems so that built-in speakers are muted when headphones are plugged in, but it can be an annoyance for desktop

Use this command to disable the Auto-Mute

amixer --card=1 sset ‘Auto-Mute Mode’ Disabled

The Headphone output might automatically unmute and restore audio level once the auto-mute is disabled. But if it does not, use this command to set the audio level and unmute

amixer --card=1 sset ‘Headphone’ 87 unmute
13

Thanks for the reply, yes I had noticed that and I am able to resolve the problem by unmuting the headphones and raising the volume level by running alsamixer - which appears to be doing exactly the same as your suggestion but just using a different tool?

I have tried using amixer as you suggested instead, it seems to run without any errors, but when I reboot the audio is still muted again. I tried running

alsactl store

To see if that would make the changes permanent but it hasn’t seemed to have any effect, as the audio is muted again on reboot :frowning_face:

14

I wonder if there is a user account setting somewhere overriding the attempts to retain audio unmuted on boot?

You could try making a temp user and using the alsa store command, then rebooting to that temp user.

Hello,
I also have the same problem for a few weeks. The problem appeared after the alsa-lib update:
