alsamixer in the terminal shows this :
ok
let’s try this:
systemctl stop --user wireplumber
mv ~/.local/state/wireplumber ~/.local/state/wireplumber_old
systemctl restart --user pipewire
systemctl start --user wireplumber
restart the audio stream or test the loudspeaker from the settings menu
It’s possible that you need to restart rhythmbox first.
alsamixer:
what options are shown with F6 ?
Still nothing as for rhythm box not the settings, terminal showed this :
❯ systemctl stop --user wireplumber
mv ~/.local/state/wireplumber ~/.local/state/wireplumber_old
systemctl restart --user pipewire
systemctl start --user wireplumber

For Alsamixer :
The sound in “Master” went down for some reason
Then this with F6 :
we moved the old config out of the way.
in alsamixer F6, select the HDA Intel and then F3
I did enter to select the Intel sound, F3 didn’t seem to do anything but here is what i see :
The radio is still playing but I don’t hear it, same for the settings.
Nothing new in the pipewire graph either.
increase master volume and unmute the S/PDIF output. But that’s probably not it.
This is a very stubborn system! What’s the exact name/model?
Is it what you meant ?
I think I may have some keys different, my F3 makes the light settings up, and on my external/bluetooth keyboard, it’s opening the “search in the page” option in firefox.
For F6, on my laptop it cuts the sound, and on my external keyboard it works.
My model :
Am I just cursed with Fedora to this point lol I’m starting to wonder
I definitely am not anymore, I unplugged and resetted this.
No sound either when I put the two S/PDIF in green btw, wasn’t clear which setting was the silent one since i got no sound anyway (and the F6 mute button isn’t active so I should be able to hear something)
yeah, MM means muted. But that’s some other output.
what does aplay -l show
I am really surprised that aplay worked but pipewire/wireplumber not.
Do you have a headphone for the 3.5mm audio-out port?
I’m out of ideas right now.
❯ aplay -l

I have headphones but at the moment I can only use the bluetooth, I don’t find the wire back
AH rhythmbox crashed quickly when I tried with bluetooth headphones. I opened the report and first line is this :
rhythmbox killed by SIGSEGV
And again, it “played” but the 00:00 stayed as such so I’m even doubting it did, much like the buffering on youtube
I wonder if an old issue has resurfaced. https://github.com/xoocoon/hp-15-ew0xxx-snd-fix says:
HP laptop models from 2022 onwards seem to be quite compatible with Linux, except the sound from built-in speakers. This repo contains two DKMS modules for fixing this issue on Debian-based Linux distros, Fedora and Arch Linux (from kernel 6.1 onwards) and the models listed above.
It might also work with other HP models. Hardware prerequisites are the Cirrus Logic smart amplifier chipset CSC3551 and the Realtek HDA codec ALC245. Please leave any comments or commit any code to make it work for additional models.

Yeah it’s suspicious as hell. I downloaded a tiny mp3 and tried to play it but I got no sound at all either. With “Videos” it shows 00:00 on the left and — in the right as if it got no end.
When I play it in rhythmbox, it shows me 00:46 (total duration) I can click on the timing bar but it doesn’t make any sound and no progression at all
Truth is, it’s older than 2022… It got fixed on Mint for sure since -it works there, but nothing for Fedora. It did work when I installed but then, it suddenly vanished. Should I still try the process in your link ?
it’s an older system
mai 10 16:17:09 kernel: snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1f.3: bound 0000:00:02.0 (ops i915_audio_component_bind_ops [i91>
mai 10 16:17:09 kernel: snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC0D0: ALC295: picked fixup for PCI SSID 103c:0000
it seems the ALC295 is also riddled with quirks.
What should I do then ? It means Fedora isn’t compatible with my system whatsoever (even if for example I use another version instead) ?
Or should I try what’s in the link that was sent ?
And I’m very puzzled to know that all worked when I started the system, but everything vanished at least for audio/online video. Any explanations for that, so that at least I understand what’s going on ? (I got it for the HP incompatibility part tho)
And then, what about the youtube problem we started this conversation on ? Is it all upside down because of Open264 ? (nothing new on arte website either btw)
Sorry for all my questions but at least it’s to understand what we tried and why even though we did, it didn’t work. Could help me in the future if it happens again.
no the openh264 is not involved with sound.
RIght now I don’t have a real answer.
could you post pls
sudo dnf history info 1 | head -15
sudo dnf history info 2 | head -15
try also ( this will take some time, it will check all packages for errors)
sudo rpm -V $( rpm -qa \* )
I’ll be away for a few hours, though.
Thank you for all your help. Honestly I’m making a pause too, it’s evening in France. I’ll send you those as soon as I can, and answer me whenever you have time. Enjoy your weekend first of all, you already did try lots with me so far.
If it worked initially and then ceased working and you didn’t change any settings that might have cause the problem, then it was probably an update that introduced a new bug (at least with your hardware).
You can try downgrading packages that you think might be responcible for the problem and rebooting to see if that works around the problem and restores the original behavior. If you do find that an update has introduced a new bug, please report it.
For example, to downgrade WirePlumber, you might try the following command:
sudo dnf --repo=fedora downgrade wireplumber
Downgrading the kernel is slightly more complex than most other packages:
sudo dnf --repo=fedora downgrade kernel\*
You will need to reboot and manually select the older kernel to test it if you choose to do that.
