No Sound on AntiX 23.1 Full 64-bit Fresh Install [Solved]

[mickb]

Hello,
I have no sound on a mp4 file, YouTube, or SMTube. I tried to get it to work via the instructions https://www.antixforum.com/forums/topic ... ost-101313. I was able to get the speakers from the TV monitor to work and the mp4 file to emit a sound but only via terminal. Please let me know what I should do to get sound to work at bootup.

Here's some system info:

Code: Select all

$ inxi -A

  Device-1: Intel Haswell-ULT HD Audio driver: snd_hda_intel
  Device-2: Intel 8 Series HD Audio driver: snd_hda_intel

$ sudo cat /proc/asound/cards 
 0 [HDMI           ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel HDMI
                      HDA Intel HDMI at 0x86918000 irq 49
 1 [PCH            ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
                      HDA Intel PCH at 0x8691c000 irq 47

I edited /etc/asound.conf with following:
defaults.pcm.card 0
defaults.ctl.card 0

I have pipewire, pipewire-alsa, and pipewire-audio v. 1.2.3.1~bpo12+1. When I run Test Sound under antiX Control Centre/Hardware, it hung with no sound at the following message:

speaker-test 1.2.8

Playback device is pipewire
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels

Period size range from 32 to 524288
Using max buffer size 1048576

Thank you for your help!

pipewire-audio v. 1.2.3.1~bpo12+1

Use the version from antiX repos
