After the update, sound was distorted and very low. Attempted to correct with volume in pulse but didn’t work. Tried alsamixer and lots of suggestions written to others with sound issues. Installed all pulseaudio programs available hoping one would bring it back to life. Nothing I’ve tried has worked. Can someone help? Here is the inxi

Hi all,
i also do have the same issue. I tried the a.m. rm command, but it did not change something.

Yes. I saw and applied that before writing to the forum. After rebooting there was still no sound. Thanks for the suggestion.
