Hello guys I’ve installed Manjaro and have been having plenty of issues with the sound. I was hoping someone could help me out.
Timeline of my issues:
-
No sound whatsoever, asked for help in the discord and they tried a lot of things with me but nothing work
-
Eventually got my razer kraken to work by changing from the default channel 2 to channel 4 in alsamixer. This meant that my mic stopped working but I was fine with that screw it.
-
Installed windows (disabled fast boot) and now sound only works if I half plug-in my headset jack. Keep in mind that it works fine in windows so I’m sure it’s not the headset itself. I’ve also tried with a different kernel and that didn’t work.
I am using a razer kraken headset with a headphone mic splitter. Pavucontrol detects it and shows output when I play something. I also have an HDMI monitor, I suspect that might be the problem but I’m not sure.

Thank you so much for your time in advance to anyone who can help me get sound and my mic working. I appreciate it.
