Re: Sound quickly fades out and no microphone -- pulse audio

Sorry for the late response. Two steps forward and one step back -- I lost my sound again, even after creating the sound.conf file to drop down to the older intel firmware. Here's the output of my system again -- I did an apt-get upgrade in the last week, but didn't think to look to see if the pulse ...

Re: Sound quickly fades out and no microphone -- pulse audio

Update: sound for speakers/headphones is now working natively in kernel 6.0. I created a sound.conf file for the mic with the first option you suggested, and it works (!), I just need to adjust my volume level manually in pavucontrol panel. Before I mark this solved though, I wanted to understand ...

Re: Sound quickly fades out and no microphone -- pulse audio

Well this is frustrating. I lost the sound again, even after generating the sound.conf that initially worked. So generating a second sound.conf to handle the microphone isn't going to move the needle much since I don't have any output sound. I'll try upgrading to 6.0 (currently in kernel 5.19). And ...

Re: Sound quickly fades out and no microphone -- pulse audio

Thanks again for the suggestions. I'd like to try the 6.0 kernel, but it is not currently listed in my MXPI. Do I need to switch to the sid repository to get access to it? (DIdn't see it in the MX Test Repo either.)

Just thought of an additional question in response to your previous posts as well ...

Re: Sound quickly fades out and no microphone -- pulse audio

Thanks for the suggestion -- I created the sound.conf file, and got my speakers and headphones back. You were also correct, I lost my microphone -- the attached image of my alsamixer shows that I don't have the option to adjust my volume levels on the microphone. (Hope I attached it correctly.) Do ...

Sound quickly fades out and no microphone -- pulse audio

I have been struggling with this issue with my sound for some time, and it has made it impossible to listen to any audio/video as well as take Zoom/google meet calls in MX. All sound works as it should in Windows 11.

Whenever I go to listen to a video or play music, I get the sound for about 1-4 ...

Re: suspend not working

No joy putting intel_iommu=off in my boot sequence :-( I'll have to try to see if suspend works from the live USB this weekend. Will keep you posted. And thanks again for the continued help on this. Now if I could only get my microphone to get detected on video calls......post for another time.

Spoke too soon again -- after about 5 minutes of web browsing, my mouse pointer got incredibly slow and unresponsive and I was unable to drop down to a terminal (ctrl-alt-F1) to restart lightdm. Weird....

Re: suspend not working

I stepped away for 3 minutes after doing a pm-suspend, and my laptop actually did go to sleep -- fans stopping running. So looks like problem solved?! However, I'd like to get further details on why turning off error reporting was allowing my laptop to go to sleep?
