Audio not working with speakers, but works with headphones.
So, I'm having what seems like a weird audio issue. I just installed Bazzite, and I'm trying to get everything up and running. The audio works fine with my headphones, but not the speakers attached to my desktop. It's literally the same internal audio device, with a front and back port, one port works, but when I try to switch to the other port, I get no audio.
I've tried boosting the audio in pavucontrol. I made sure fastboot was off. Does anyone else have any ideas?
TIA

Ok, so, when I unplug my headphones, the speakers work. Is there anyway to change that behavior?
I hope i can help. I had the same issue. You can switch automute to disable
This is described here:

It should work but in my case i have now sound on both Headphones and Speakers.

Alsamixer: howto disable auto-mute mode
I've tried do undo this but not able to get it disabled. My sound settings need to be redone every boot up as well, but asking that question as well would get neg. feedback.
How to get microphone to
thanks for the info. Unfortunately, this didn't fix it. I managed to get auto-mute to be "disabled", but it made no difference whatsoever, even after a re-boot.
I've had the same issue since the beginning
My impression is that bazzite can't differentiate aux ports
this reminds me (but in a different way) of the long debugging attempt I did last night in #headset microphone problem
it works for you in other distros? It seemed like the port disabling stuff is a general Linux issue in various distros when I looked into it
Haven't tried any other distro
I've been fine with it tho cause I just unplug the front aux so I could use the speakers
And when headset needed again, I just plug it in
Did either of you ever try installing alsa-tools and using hdajackretask?
We tried that in the other debugging thread but couldn't get it to work properly, it felt like things were close but I was still missing some vital detail
That tool in theory lets you override certain devices for jack detection etc.
I'm not home for a while, at work still
But I can check later when I got time
I had the same issue in Kubuntu. I thought it could have something to do with my codec ALC1220
having the same issue on my msi laptop, pls notify me if you find any solution
