Hi,

Just installed 12.1 and I don’t have any sound. Need help finding the problem. Below in my Hardware Information for my sound cards:

Cancel that! I found the problem using the KDE Control Module | Sound and Video Configuration, had to set it to my sound card.

Glad to read its working now. Thanks for sharing your solution.

For future reference, I like using the pulse audio volume control (pavucontrol) application for tuning my audio (my blog on this app here: Pulseaudio Basics for openSUSE with pavucontrol - Blogs - openSUSE Forums )

and for explaining my audio configuration, I like using the diagnostic script alsa-info, which can be launched in a terminal with the command (as a regular user) :


/usr/sbin/alsa-info.sh
