I have PinePhone with Manjaro Phosh on it. It has the most of the functions operative, but a big issue i think which is not resolved since a few months ago:
When I call someone and finish, in the sound menu turns on the “earpiece” function, and when someone calls later there is no sound. Sometimes, the “earpiece” function turns on automatically, so the sound is really low, imperceptible.
I think that everyone who uses Phosh knows this, but I cant found a theme about that. Any solution?
I’m starting to think that the installation of any app (I don’t know which, maybe audiotube?) could make any dysfunction on the normal behavior of the sound configuration, because it is happening to me the same thing in the phosh system of another distribution. And, as I’ve been watching, the first clean installation the sound works perfectly.
The third command had a typo: comma rather than full stop in “pipewire.socket”
It would be easier to copy/paste terminal response instead of posting screenshots. People trying to help you would not have to type in responses. Text data can be indexed for web searches to help future users
Please post response to this command to show status of PulseAudio and PipeWire services
Since PipeWire has replaced PulseAudio, command to disable pipewire.socket or pipewire.service is not needed.
I have recently found that pipewire.socket ignores disable command anyway, so it is not likely to cause problems.
If you were to revert to using PulseAudio I would now suggest masking pipewire.socket and pipewire.service to avoid hostilities
If you revert to using PulseAudio I may be able to help with further troubleshooting
But my knowledge of PipeWire is for defence purposes only
(not my circus, not my flying monkeys)
but pamac might stumble over PipeWire dependencies as beefore
If you cannot resolve dependency issues with the metapackage, install just the core PulseAudio package
pamac install pulseaudio
When pamac asks to choose optional dependencies, select pulseaudio-alsa only
Those 2 packages should be enough to check onboard audio for microphone/speakers and wired headsets pulseaudio-bluetooth and any other optional dependencies needed can be installed once the main audio inputs and outputs are working as expected
I tried the first you told, and the result was failure because dependencies.
Then I tried installing pulseaudio packages and these are the options I get:
[manjaro@gonmovil ~]$ pamac install pulseaudio

Escoge las dependencias opcionales para pulseaudio:
1: pulseaudio-zeroconf: Zeroconf support
2: pulseaudio-lirc: IR (lirc) support
3: pulseaudio-jack: Jack support
4: pulseaudio-equalizer: Graphical equalizer
5: pulseaudio-rtp: RTP and RAOP support
When I select one of them (I don’t know which is the best), then the same thing: imposible installing it because dependencies.
Please post full response from terminal to show dependencies causing problems. If the dependencies cannot be resolved, Manjaro Team will need relevant data to consider if any changes are needed for the metapackage
If metapackage manjaro-pulse works correctly, it should install:
pulseaudio core package
pulseaudio-alsa support for onboard audio and USB devices
pulseaudio-bluetooth for Bluetooth devices
pulseaudio-zeroconf for networked audio devices
I suspect there are dependency problems with pulseaudio-bluetooth but there is no data to confirm this
Since pulseaudio-alsa is not shown as an optional dependency I expect pamac might confirm it is installed as a recommended dependency during install of pulseaudio
When I select one of them (I don’t know which is the best)
I suggest you try selecting none of the 5 listed dependencies
