[Testing - Bookworm] sound not working anymore after upgrade from bullseye

Message

baldyeti · #1 Post by **baldyeti** » 2023-03-25 12:52

sound was previously working under bullseye but not since i upgraded to bookworm

perhaps this has to do with pipewire vs pulseaudio ?

here's what 'inxi -A" reports

Code: Select all

Audio:
  Device-1: Intel Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor HD Audio
    driver: snd_hda_intel
  Device-2: Intel 8 Series/C220 Series High Definition Audio
    driver: snd_hda_intel
  Sound API: ALSA v: k6.1.0-6-amd64 running: yes
  Sound Server-1: PipeWire v: 0.3.65 running: yes

alsamixer only produces error messages, and pa-info's error messages are also included below (its actual output is quite verbose!)

Sound is user space. Run as user ($).

Thanks for the suggestion but i actually did and it produces the exact same output (except for the "connection error"). And of course i noticed the issue because i could not get sound from multimedia apps running under my regular account)

alsamixer does run as user for me (Bookworm). pa-info >/dev/null seems to be a Pulse Audio thang.

Code: Select all

$ pa-info >/dev/null
/usr/bin/pa-info: line 57: pulseaudio: command not found
cat: /etc/pulse/daemon.conf: No such file or directory
cat: /etc/pulse/default.pa: No such file or directory
cat: /etc/pulse/system.pa: No such file or directory

Code: Select all

$ pactl list

should give you a lot of information under Pipewire. (Yes, pa stands for Pulse Audio, but it works with Pipewire.)

pactl works indeed , but i cannot play anything with vlc, smplayer, deadbeef ... and plasma sees no audio output device
I see i have pipewire & pipewire-pulseaudio running, though ...

Do you still have pulseaudio installed? If so, remove it.

Is wireplumber installed and enabled in Systemd as per Debian page?

https://wiki.debian.org/PipeWire#Debian ... 2FUnstable

If either apply, reboot.

Can you manually change the profile in pavucontrol?

Thanks for keeping at it, Frank !

After removing pulseaudio I now have sound in KDE settings, dolphin preview, smplayer and firefox.

For deadbeef i am using the dev's static build and had to use a more recent one which has a pipewire plugin (1.9.5 i/o 1.8.8).
For vlc i had to manually install vlc-plugin-pipewire and voilà!

(wireplumber was already installed. pavucontrol is not and apparently installing it would pull pulseaudio again)

Thank you very much.

You're welcome.

I have pavucontrol without pulseaudio, probably because it's only a recommend, and it was already there, so it's not an automatic uninstall. If KDE settings does everything you want, you don't really need it, but you could install it with --no-install-recommends.
