Previously, I was using Manjaro Gnome, and I was only able to produce sound through my second monitor (DP-1), and my main monitor (DP-3) would not produce sound, which I did not mind as one was good enough.
On that older system I had messed around with my audio setup quite a bit to get Bluetooth working which was ultimately a futile effort.
However, having switched to Xfce after a fresh install, I am not getting any audio out of either. I have tried almost every setting on the sound mixer, to no avail.
When I select the Digital Stereo output (GA104 High Definition Audio Controller), the sound bar in the Volume Control jumps around, but no actual sound is produced.
The headphones work just fine.
I want to get audio out of either one of the Monitors if I can.
I am not sure what other logs I need to post that would be helpful. I am more than happy to provide anything. First post, sorry if it is horrible.
