KDE Plasma, sound doesn't work/plays

This means that the default output device is the HDMI output of Nvidia GPU. And the default input device is the monitor of the output. I assume that’s not what you want? You need to change it in the system settings or pavucontrol.

And how can I change it? I don’t have the Options for it…

The Headphones still don’t get detected… only “HDMI / DisplayPort”

pactl set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_00_14.2 output:analog-stereo+input:analog-stereo
pactl set-default-sink alsa_output.pci-0000_00_14.2.analog-stereo
pactl set-default-source alsa_input.pci-0000_00_14.2.analog-stereo

Run these again. And then run pactl info again.

It only work now if I change the Built in in pavu or what the name again to line out (unplugged) but not all the time… I need to select it every time after the Sound doesn’t play anymore… it mutes / de-select itself every time

pobrn · 16 October 2020 16:45

Hmmm…, still no change. Does any of the commands show any errors? What do you see in the “Output devices” tab of pavucontrol?

anon74462743 · 16 October 2020 16:46

only this… not more

pobrn · 16 October 2020 16:51

If you open alsamixer, then press F6 and select the the “HDA ATI SB” device, what are the inputs/outputs listed?

anon74462743 · 16 October 2020 16:59

Saw auto mute… tought it would work nowwhen I Disable it… well still does not work.
Activated it again for the screenshoot.

pobrn · 16 October 2020 17:04

If you go to the right (press right arrow), do you see “Rear”?

anon74462743 · 16 October 2020 17:04

Only 2x Rear Micro one with MM on the bottom and one without

anon74462743 · 16 October 2020 17:09

It is like this: I activate the Headphones when watching Youtube… works… I do pause or skip some seconds… its disable itself again… even if I have youtube open sound come out and I start another youtube tab or game with sound… ony the windows where i activatet the headphones at the time works as long I do not pause or skip it…

pobrn · 16 October 2020 17:11

Where do you do that?

anon74462743 · 16 October 2020 17:13

Over the Sound System Setting in my bar, tray icon.

In pavu everything seems ok?

and here: this is eveyrtime when I look at he settings after activate Line out (built-in Audi…)

pobrn · 16 October 2020 17:32

So if you select “Line Out (Built-in…”, then it’ll work, but after some time it’ll switch back to “HDMI / …”?

anon74462743 · 16 October 2020 17:35

Yes and no… It disable itself not after time… after I activate it, and don’t switches back… HDMI is activate all the time… i cannot deactivate it… so when I activate it, Line out and Hdmi both are activate…!

Looks like this… and when I close it… then I can see Line out is disabled again

pobrn · 16 October 2020 17:57

I have no clue why it does that. Please try the following: open alsamixer, select the “HDA ATI SB” card, and disable “auto-mute mode”. Then unmute (press “m”) and increase “surround”, “center”, “lfe”, “side”, and “line” to about 50. Now exit, and run pactl load-module module-alsa-sink device="surround40:CARD=SB,DEV=0" sink_name="test", then run pactl set-default-sink test.

Please check if systemctl --user status pulseaudio shows anything that may be related.
