Thanks. I’ll have to look into those.
In the meantime, I’ve had a thought. I think all my problems are soundcard related.
But I don’t believe advanced users with actual (not built-in) sound cards, need to reinstall from
scratch if they buy a new sound card. Yet I’m pretty sure that pulsaudio and/or alsa keep crib
notes on sound card setup info.
Is there a way to purge all sound card configs {and possibly drivers} replacing them with new ones
based on auto-detection of the current sound card???
Preferably by some method that doesn’t automatically uninstall half my software due to temporarily
unresolved dependencies?
