Just noticed when trying to play a youtube video on firefox that I no longer have any sound. I see that pulseaudio is now pipewire but that does not mean much to me. It does seem that sound have failed very recently, last several days.
speaker-test -c2 -l5 -twav fails
speaker-test -c8 -l5 -twav -D plug:surround71 provides "Front Left" and "Front Right" from my attached speakers
speaker-test -c2 -l5 -twav -D hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=1 provides "Front Left" and "Front Right" from my second display (TV).
the system tray audio speaker button displays a diagonal red line indicating mute but mute is not selected.
does this provide information which will help solve my provlem?
tks,
Wireplumber is running ?
systemctl --user status wireplumber.service
you got it, I knew *nothing* about "wireplumber" ...
systemctl --user status wireplumber.service ○ wireplumber.service - Multimedia Service Session Manager Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/user/wireplumber.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: inactive (dead)
started and again have sound.
wonder why it didn't automagically start? or why it stopped?
tks
It is new and replaced the media session service. On one of my two TW istallations I had to start and activate it manually too. No idea why one out of two... Hendrik
