The following output is from an ASUS B350-Plus with an AMD 5700G. Same CPU as mine, ASUS B350-Plus mobo uses a Realtek ALC887, the same as my B550-Plus. The B350-Plus computer is running Ubuntu 24.04. aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 3: HDMI 0 [ASUS VG289] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: Generic_1 [HD-Audio Generic], device 0: ALC887-VD Analog [ALC887-VD Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: Generic_1 [HD-Audio Generic], device 1: ALC887-VD Digital [ALC887-VD Digital] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 inxi -Axx Audio: Device-1: AMD Renoir Radeon High Definition Audio vendor: ASUSTeK driver: snd_hda_intel v: kernel pcie: speed: 8 GT/s lanes: 16 bus-ID: 08:00.1 chip-ID: 1002:1637 Device-2: AMD Family 17h/19h HD Audio vendor: ASUSTeK PRIME B450M-A driver: snd_hda_intel v: kernel pcie: speed: 8 GT/s lanes: 16 bus-ID: 08:00.6 chip-ID: 1022:15e3 API: ALSA v: k6.8.0-39-generic status: kernel-api Server-1: PipeWire v: 1.0.5 status: active with: 1: pipewire-pulse status: active 2: wireplumber status: active 3: pipewire-alsa type: plugin sudo dmesg | grep snd [ 6.782313] snd_hda_intel 0000:08:00.1: Handle vga_switcheroo audio client [ 6.809213] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: autoconfig for ALC887-VD: line_outs=1 (0x14/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) type:line [ 6.809219] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: speaker_outs=0 (0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) [ 6.809221] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: hp_outs=1 (0x1b/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) [ 6.809223] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: mono: mono_out=0x0 [ 6.809225] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: dig-out=0x11/0x0 [ 6.809226] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: inputs: [ 6.809228] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: Front Mic=0x19 [ 6.809230] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: Rear Mic=0x18 [ 6.809231] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: Line=0x1a [ 9.265532] snd_hda_intel 0000:08:00.1: bound 0000:08:00.0 (ops amdgpu_dm_audio_component_bind_ops [amdgpu]) This is presumably what mine should look like. I'm beginning to wonder whether I have some kind of hardware fault on the B550-Plus motherboard itself. Unfortunately, Windows is the only way I have of testing it.
