After last update I did this morning my sound config stops working. The hardware and audio are all working, but I cant control it by the gnome-control-center. See below my print:
This looks like the same issue that others and I have been having for a few weeks now. For me it manifests as being unable to select the Line Out option for my motherboard’s audio out port.
In the meantime, if the output device you want to use cannot be selected via the UI, try the following commands:
wpctl status
This will output all the sources/sinks WirePlumber can see. Identify the number of the sink you’d like to use.
wpctl set-default <sink_number>
This should immediately switch the output device to that sink.
Kind of a tedious workaround, sorry, but it’s been working for me. Alternatives are to downgrade the Gnome Settings application to an earlier version but that was causing different issues for me.
