Re: Pulseaudio Reply #2 – 11 December 2020, 23:25:35 you might give Archwiki a change: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PulseAudio/TroubleshootingMy guess could be some autospawning of PA or something broken in your machine.Check if you have- proper output selected- alsamixer- check if your channel are muted (some shit can happen if automute is enabled when you plugin headphones etc.)- check your HW if it truly can play something (trust me in this, this is the most common error I encountered)If that does not help try to provide some logs from puleaudio, dmesg, your card model (lscpi, lsusb etc.).And many other thing could also got wrong.
