Hi, can someone help me with an issue? Yesterday, after zypper dup (which I perform every week) all sound disappeared from my system. KDE sound settings show following:
Audio is working fine on my Windows 10 installation and on another distro launched from Live USB, so it seems to be a software issue and not a hardware problem.
I have tried solving it by:
- Restarting system
- Running
systemctl --user restart pipewire wireplumber pipewire-pulse
- Running
systemctl --user enable --now wireplumber pipewire
- Reinstalling alsa, pipewire, pipewire-pulseaudio, pipewire-alsa and wireplumber
But nothing has helped so far.
