I have been having persistent issues for a couple months now that used to happen 1/3 of boots but now seems to occur about 4/5 boots. Whenever I log into my Manjaro distro I get no audio inputs, pulseaudio shows busy, and when I try to systemctl --user restart pulseaudio
I get an error:
systemctl --user restart pulseaudio
Failed to restart pulseaudio.service: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
See user logs and 'systemctl --user status pulseaudio.service' for details.
[foo@bar Desktop]$ systemctl --user status pulseaudio.service
Failed to get properties: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
[foo@bar Desktop]$
It’s getting to the point where I just play bootup roulette and restart 6 times until I finally have audio

Welcome to Manjaro!
Please read this:
How to provide good information
and post some more information so we can see what’s really going on. Now we know the symptom of the disease, but we need some more probing to know where the origin lies…
An inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width
would be the minimum required information… (Personally Identifiable Information like serial numbers and MAC addresses will be filtered out by the above command)
Also, please copy-paste that output in-between 3 backticks ``` at the beginning and end of the code/text .
P.S. If you enter a bit more details in your profile, we can also see which Desktop Environment you’re using, which CPU, GPU or Kernel you have without typing it every time

You’ve got 2 audio sources and nVidia seems to be #1 .
Can you:
pamac install alsa-tools
hdajackretask
and tell us what pins are connected to what in both nVidia and AMD?

That’s the realtek only. Can you change the Select a coded
drop-down in the upper left corner to nVidia and give me that one too, please?
You should consider updating motherboard BIOS as it mentions a fix is included for audio
that might help resolve the intermittent problem on your system
B450-GAMING-PRO-CARBON-AC | MSI Global
Version - 7B85v1C
Release Date - 2020-06-15
Updated AMD AGESA ComboAm4PI 1.0.0.6
Fix HDMI audio lost issue when use AMD RX570 vga card.
If system is dual-boot with a Windows OS, audio devices might be affected by Fast Startup
Intermittent problem - sometimes no sound after boot
Most of the time I boot up and sound works fine, but less often when I boot into the system there is no sound and I have to reboot
Are you dual-booting with Windows?
Is the audio device missing after selecting ‘Restart’ from other OS, then booting to Manjaro?
If ‘Shutdown’ is used to close other OS instead of ‘Restart’, is the audio device detected OK ?
If the answer to all 3 of those questions is yes, the problem is in Windows not Linux
the solution is to Turn Off Fast Startup in Windows 10

Here’s the Nvidia screenshot.
I do have dual boot but I do not have fast start enabled, iirc that was supposed to be disabled to get the system clocks to synchronize correctly so it’s never been enabled for me.
updating the mobo drivers is something I should do in the Windows side too right?

You have an UEFI system, so should just upgrade the firmware once: your choice Windows or Manjaro.
Try that first and then report back if that automagically solves your issue.
If it doesn’t check of the two screenshots you’ve posted are still the same and provide the textual output of the dropdown box of hdajackretask
and please confirm you don’t get any input or output or both. (Original only mentions input)

I’ve updated the BIOS on my motherboard and now GRUB is bypassed and my system only boots into windows without the option to select Manjaro…that feels bad
I suppose I need to check my boot priorities but I can’t remember what the boot option is for GRUB

I tried to run CMD as admin and then input
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\manjaro\grubx64.efi
it said operation completed successfully yet when I reboot it still goes straight to Windows. When I open the boot options in BIOS it only lists Windows boot manager as an option and I don’t see an option for GRUB

Urgh! Boot a Manjaro live USB and execute:
grub-install /dev/XdY
Where X
and Y
denominate your boot drive under Manjaro.
P.S. Never try a Windows solution on a Linux system (though the reverse may be true)

The correct way is: grub-install device
not grub-install partition
so execute:
grub-install /dev/nvme0n1

I get the same error with that:

Once you get back into a working system, try this:
Stop pulseaudio service with,
systemctl --user stop pulseaudio.service
Remove everything under ~/.config/pulse/
Edit /etc/pulse/client.conf and change it to,
autospawn = yes
Start pulseaudio service with,
systemctl --user start pulseaudio.service
(Optionally) Reboot your computer

That’s normal behavior for a live USB session. It’s not really anyone’s personal system, thus no need for passphrase protection.

Will do when I get there, trying to follow the GRUB/restore the GRUB guide. This time
manjaro-chroot -a
gave the output
grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sda1. Check your device.map.

--> mount: [/mnt/boot/efi]
mount: /mnt/boot/efi: /dev/nvme0n1p2 already mounted on /mnt/boot/efi.
and so I went to check my /etc/fstab and it looks like that file somehow was overwritten in the Windows update? At least it doesn’t list all the partitions it should. Here is what I see:
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

UUID=afd121e3-cca8-40fd-8535-3e241d39435c none swap defaults 0 0
should I continue with the grub re-install?
Also, dumb question, but once this is done what is the command to unmount all before rebooting? Or can I just reboot and see if I get to GRUB?
