Can't open mixer and no sound, helem (MIXER,'Front Mic Boots Valume',0,1,0) appears twice or more

af flag

I have two audio ports on my computer, but the front one always no sound. I also tried a mixer to try to config it, but it gave an error. I guess it have some driver conflict, but I have no idea how to figure it out :'(

Any idea?

Here is what my computer audio port looks like.

codec ALC888-VD ALC888-VD
position Back Front
Function 0:Line Out, 1:MIC 0:Line Out, 1:MIC
Port Num 2 2
HW:dev 0:0 0:2
/sys/class/cound hwC0D0 hwC0D1

OS: Ubuntu 20.04.2LTS

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.
