Can someone help me to diagnose a problem with sound on my laptop? My system (after update) is:- Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20210620 KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.83.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.12.10-1-default (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i7-7500U CPU @ 2.70GHz Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa DRI Intel® HD Graphics 620 The problem is that when I play music (through VLC media player or audacity) everything is fine until I plug in earphones. When the earphones connect, there is only silence. The 'phones worked fine until a recent update. PulseAudio Control (Volume Control), shows output and under 'Output Devices' tab when I switch from headphones to speakers, I hear music. Back to headphones, silence. I ran alsa-info.sh when playing through speakers, then connected the headphones and ran alsa-info.sh again. ************** Output: 6c6 < !!Script ran on: Wed Jun 23 15:40:01 UTC 2021 ---

********************* It seems that a number of values get set to zero on plugging in the headphones. Anyone have a way to fix the problem? -- \ ^ / 0 Turtle / v \ wame nuttauwadtuongash
