No sound from line-out and headphone sound is low

fi flag

I am facing an issue with my sound, and while trying to fix it I made it even worse.

It started with my rear line-out stopped working. I was connecting a headphone there using a Y splitter. So the sound is connected to line-out and the mic is connected to the Mic input. This was working fine and also the front headphone and mic was working just fine. I used them as well using the Y splitter.

At some point I got no sound from the line-out anymore. The front headphone was still working properly though.

I have looking for days for a solution for the line-out problem, and I looked in all posts that report similar issue in here and on the web. I tried all the suggestions there but nothing seem to resolve the issue, but even worse now my front headphone sound is too low. I think it is something I did with HDAJackRetask, but I tried to undo the changes done there, but I still have the same issue.

I unmuted everything in alsamixer and raised the volume to the max there.

The problem might be relevant to installing both AMD and NVIDIA GPU driver. I was testing a video card and connected both for a while. I installed the NVIDIA headless driver during that time. I started noticing this issue after that but I do not know if it is just a coincidence.

I am running Ubuntu 20.4 and the sound chip is ALC1220.

I am not sure if this would help finding the issue in hand, but here is the output from alsa-info http://alsa-project.org/db/?f=8f18f65508b6dbf4dc3fc80fbc09e83dae13c5c0

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
