Another issue since i’ve upgraded to 42, sound is distorted, I hear constant background noise…
So sorry for this upgrade…

Audio:
  Device-1: Intel Raptor Lake High Definition Audio vendor: ASUSTeK
    driver: snd_hda_intel v: kernel bus-ID: 0000:00:1f.3 chip-ID: 8086:7a50
  Device-2: NVIDIA AD106M High Definition Audio vendor: ASUSTeK
    driver: snd_hda_intel v: kernel bus-ID: 0000:01:00.1 chip-ID: 10de:22bd
  API: ALSA v: k6.13.11-200.fc41.x86_64 status: kernel-api
  Server-1: PipeWire v: 1.4.2 status: active with: 1: pipewire-pulse
    status: active 2: wireplumber status: active 3: pipewire-alsa type: plugin

If the audio is distorted this could indicate that the audio sink volume is set too high. You could start by checking this in a terminal like this:

$ wpctl get-volume @DEFAULT_AUDIO_SINK@
3

❯ wpctl get-volume @DEFAULT_AUDIO_SINK@

Volume: 0.50

Resolved!!!

I removed Fedora, BYE!
