So I just resurrected a laptop from a couple of years ago, and have
installed leap 42.3 on it. I am running KDE Plasma 5.
The only thing that is giving me trouble is that I am not getting sound
from the headphones. I have pavucontrol on it, and if I select the
headphones for the output, it always has them listed as “unplugged”,
even when they are plugged in.
I have configured the sound card with yast, and un-muted the headphones
with alsamixer, but I still don’t get anything.
Here is my system, as far as sound goes:
# lspci | grep -i audio

Thanks for your help, I have no idea what to do next.
