Recently built a media PC and turns out the back panel audio wasn’t working. Same issue with Windows so I thought it was a defective motherboard but today I tried to update BIOS and drivers and the audio driver failed (it uninstalled the previous one). Now using the Windows default drivers the back panel audio works just fine!
Now back to Manjaro, using KDE (haven’t tried Gnome yet) and the back panel audio makes no sound and it used to be glitchy by showing the audio source OSD when doing video playback. Switching to the edgelord branch seemed to fix those but still no audio in the back panel. Tried a newer kernel 6.11.4-1 but no dice…
Here’s some info output:
