Pavucontrol shows that audio is playing but no output heard
Hi linuxquestions users i have a problem that has been bothering me for a week now:
I have installed debian 10 (buster)(32-bit) on an acer aspire 1610 and i am having problems with the audio card:
essentially pavucontrol tells me that sound is playing but no sound can be heard from the sink in question (my rear green jack)
The machine mounts a SIS966 audio card and an NVidia graphics card that has also audio card features (hdmi)
I couldn't care less about the NVidia card i just want the SIS card to be working

things that i know and that i've tried
Things that i know: - The user is in the audio group
The behaviour is present even with sudo
The tests that i've done where done with speaker-test and mpv (none working)
Things that i've tried: - Unmuted anything unmutable in the alsamixer
Changed default soundcard systemwide
Updated kernel
Uninstalled pulseaudio (and reinstalled afterwards)
Tried same tests from various live cds (manjaro/linux mint/puppy linux fossapup)
Any guesses? thanks |
