Baby New Linux/Manjaro user has no sound

revmaillet · 14 April 2024 07:14

I have a Lenovo workstation and am using Deepin for my desktop. I have no idea how to use konsole other than to force updates.

Today I was adjusting my sound settings and my dumb brain on impulse saw pipewire and pulse options in the sound area of the control center. I clicked on pipewire and now I have no sound. No volume control and no way to get back into the sound section of the control center. When you click on sound it just freezes and does nothing.

If you can help, please be patient and walk me thru things. I am sorry I did a dumb.

Can you post inxi -Fza on console ?

You can install updates with pacman -Syyu or pacman -Syu.

Just a tip from myself for the future, when you try something out and you want to mess around with settings and other stuff, just create a Timeshift Snapshot that you simple can rollback your systemsettings.

This way you get much more safety for your system and you no longer in fear of you mess something up

Hi @revmaillet and welcome to the Manjaro community

I noticed you are having some difficulty formatting your forum posts.

As a new user, please take some time to familiarise yourself with Forum requirements; in particular, the many ways to use the forum effectively.

To that end, these links will help you achieve that.

And last, but not least, the Stable Update Announcements, which you should check frequently for important update related information.

Cheers.

@revmaillet ,
Welcome to Linux, Try one command at a time,with practice you should get better.

Open the Konsole and copy paste these commands and let us know the output

PipeWire service running?

systemctl --user status pipewire.socket pipewire

Pipewire Multimedia Session Manager service:
Either one of the below service should be running.

systemctl --user status pipewire-media-session

systemctl --user status wireplumber

In my system, I have wireplumber running.

Thanks

This might be a bit backwards.

pipewire-media-session is deprecated.

To update and (re?)install the meta package for pipewire

sudo pacman -Syu manjaro-pipewire

I dont know if that will help … but it should make sure you have what you should.

revmaillet · 14 April 2024 22:54

Thank you Thank you Thank you… so I am guessing if I want to go back to pulse I switch the language froom manjaro-pipewire to manjaro-pulse?

I am doing the happy dance now YAY

cscs · 14 April 2024 23:25

That would be a fair and accurate assumption …
Except it doesnt work due to dependencies.
It requires a few extra pokes;

sudo pacman -Syu manjaro-pulse pulseaudio-bluetooth

(this may have evolved since last time checked)

See for example here;

nikgnomic · 15 April 2024 00:23

I have never used Deepin DE. I suspect GUI controls killed, stopped or disabled PulseAudio

PipeWire and PulseAudio are not running

  Server-2: PipeWire v: 1.0.3 status: off with: pipewire-media-session
    status: off tools: pw-cli
  Server-3: PulseAudio v: 17.0 status: off with: pulseaudio-alsa
    type: plugin tools: pacat,pactl

Installing PipeWire metapackage to replace PulseAudio is simpler solution than checking and restarting PulseAudio. The metapackage should also replace pipewire-media-session with wireplumber

cscs · 15 April 2024 00:42

Oh I must have missed that.

Yeah - thats going to be a source of problems because Deepin.

Its a hacked-together DE that is built on/against ubuntu with a mix of toolkits.
Expect bugs. Like really - there will be bugs. Some in usability. Some in security.

revmaillet · 15 April 2024 04:38

I think my major gripe is that Pipewire should never have been an option because it wasn’t on my pc. I know smarter linux users would do something better than I did but I assume if I have an option that I can use it. Not if I have the option I have to do something more to get it to work. Maybe that is my ancient 30+ yrs windows brain going on there.

soundofthunder · 15 April 2024 04:52

It’s not so much that a situation like this is in the purview of smarter Linux users; moreover, it should suggest users with a willingness to take a more hands-on approach. This should be prerequisite for anyone using a rolling release OS based on Arch, as Manjaro is. Things tend to change all too frequently for it to require any different kind of thinking. Cheers.

cscs · 15 April 2024 05:55

I must assume you mean some configuration settings provided by the DE.

In that case - You must talk to Deepin about it.

If they respond … in 3 or 4 years … it will probably be to tell you something about how things have changed since then (and then link to a commit that both does not fix the original issue, and also introduces two more).

My ‘expert opinion’ is that you should avoid that desktop.

Especially if you expect your environment to be anything like professionally polished out of the box.
