I just installed Leap 42.1. The only real issue I’ve had is no sound. I have an AMD Radeon R9-280. When I run ***cat /proc/asound/cards ***I get
** 0 [PCH ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
HDA Intel PCH at 0xf7f10000 irq 30
1 [HDMI ]: HDA-Intel - HDA ATI HDMI
HDA ATI HDMI at 0xf7e60000 irq 31
**So I’m not sure if it’s not recognizing it or just what is going on.

Try changing the order in yast or see if you can chose the device in pavucontrol.
**HDA Intel PCH at 0xf7f10000 irq 30

Note that HDMI devices only output to HDMI output cables

maybe that is an audio plug. Sometime labellings gets messed up you should be able to direct it now. You have to have a HDMI device plugged in to the HDMI port to use HDMI. Be sure to remove headphones since they can block internal sound
Also check volume levels and muting
Okay, sounds like progress is being made. How do I go about directing it now? I
It’s working!! I ran **pacmd set-card-profile 0 output:hdmi-surround **and bam! Working! Thanks so much for all you’re help!
Gratz. You will find that pavucontrol is a great control and allows you to direct for any program to send sound to the device or output you want
