No sound chromebook x360 c14

brahma · 22 September 2022 15:36

so it had to be those pulse packages …
install them back:
pamac install pavucontrol python-pulsectl
reboot
im on kde, so these are probably needed by gnome

windhoos · 22 September 2022 15:38

ah.

Thanx.

I’ve rebooted. still no music

windhoos · 22 September 2022 15:39

also my stager desktop is gone ? weird. we did nothing with audio.

brahma · 22 September 2022 15:41

post output from:
ls /etc/modprobe.d
did it installed also the dependencies with it?

i dont know what the stager desktop is…

windhoos · 22 September 2022 15:43

folder is empty.
I think it did all the dependacies.

brahma · 22 September 2022 15:44

ok, so run this: alsamixer press f6, select your card, and check if the speakers are not muted

windhoos · 22 September 2022 15:48

I checked, its not muted:

Moderator edit: Removed useless screenshot

brahma · 22 September 2022 15:49

and bt still works? can you test if jack works?

windhoos · 22 September 2022 15:52

i can try that at home
Yes bluetooth still works!

I need to go now, im a teacher and one of my students won a prize, im going to hand it over

Thanks for everything and hopefully i will speak to you again!

brahma · 22 September 2022 15:53

allright, so then let me know, we will continue

nikgnomic · 23 September 2022 15:09

I have flagged post #27 because of the background image and also because it is showing PulseAudio Volume Control (pavucontrol) not alsamixer

Please post more information about ALSA settings in text-format

Hi there friendly people, are there maybe any other suggestions ?
Thank you!

brahma · 27 September 2022 21:23

did you tested, if the sound is working using jack?

Yochanan · 27 September 2022 21:26

Yes, please review the Forum Rules.

windhoos · 28 September 2022 12:57

I just tested, unfortunately no sound via jack

brahma · 28 September 2022 13:01

try running this:
sudo alsa force-reload
test audio, if it doesnt work, try this:

amixer -c0 set 'Master',0 100% unmute
amixer -c0 set 'Speaker',0 100% unmute
amixer -c0 set 'Headphone',0 100% unmute

test audio, if it doesnt work, install the 5.19 kernel(not the rt one), reboot and test audio again

windhoos · 30 September 2022 14:02

Hi there,

Thanx for the reply again!

Unfortunately these comment’s doesn’t work.

alsa command is not found

for the amixer command i get the following output:

amixer: Unable to find simple control 'Master',0

I’m hoping this could be the source of the problem ?

I also fiddled around a bit with alsa, unfortunatly this did not help aswell.

I did the following according to https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php/ALSA:

cat /proc/asound/cards                          ✔  22s   base  
 0 [sofrt5682      ]: sof-rt5682 - sof-rt5682
                      HP-Dragonair-rev4

sudo touch /etc/asound.conf

and add the following code:

defaults.pcm.card 0
defaults.ctl.card 0

and tried to run it in firefox:

apulse /usr/lib/firefox/firefox                      
[GFX1-]: glxtest: VA-API test failed: failed to initialise VAAPI connection.

and nothing

brahma · 30 September 2022 14:20

the alsa command will not work on manjaro/arch, didnt know that when i posted it…
the problem is, you having a chromebook, where the audio is a mess, you can check on internet, and there are others with audio issues, what is recommended is to buy some cheap usb audio adapter in the meantime… you can check this:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Chrome_OS_devices#Fixing_audio

windhoos · 30 September 2022 21:58

Hi there.

Yes I was worried i needed to settle with that. too bad. I did purchase a usbc creative aptx dongle.

I just have to choose, manjaro without propper sound, or chromeos. Ill think ill go with manjaro.
