I installed Manjaro on my Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 7 about a month and a half ago and the audio has worked perfectly this whole time. Then, the other day, I wanted to see if I could get the fingerprint reader working. I installed fprintd and fingerprint-gui. Shortly after that I realized the audio wasn’t working right. It will only play sound the first time I play something and then I get no audio output until I restart the computer. I can see the output level indicator on the volume control fluctuating indicating it is outputting audio, but there is silence from the speakers. I am not sure if installing those packages is related but that was the only thing I’ve changed on my system between when the audio worked and when it didn’t. Uninstalling those two packages and removing all orphan packages didn’t fix it.
