Hi, kinda a newbie here, so I will try to explain this as clear as I can.
A couple of days ago, I just ran the package manager to update my system (I use Manjaro Gnome), I rebooted and then noticed that the speakers, headphones, and internal laptop mic wasn’t working properly.
If I plugged in my headphones, it will output sound on them and the speakers at the same time unless I go to sound config and change it. Before, it will pop up a window and tell me that if I wanted to use them as headphones or headset, and just switch the output only to them.
Also, the internal mic just straight stop working. I tried to go into alsamixer settings, but it also doesn’t keep my config.
Here is what inxi -Fx outputs:

Also, I check what packages updated with pacman log viewer, and I think these are relevant:
libpulse 13.0-3 -> 13.99.3-1
pulseaudio 13.0-3 -> 13.99.3-1
pulseaudio-bluetooth 13.0-3 -> 13.99.3-1
