fi flag

Well guys, im new into Ubuntu, and i have this problem,i'm totally sure that my sound card is not broken, because at the beggining when i was with 22.04 LTS, it worked, until i paired a bluetooth device to my laptop, after that, audio only works with bluetooth, otherway it doesnt, i think that i already tried basically all type of things avaible, (because of that im using 22.10 now lmao). Just i dont know what i can do, im almost going to surrender, so posting here is my last chance. Feel free to ask me to run any command if you need the info. Currently using Ubuntu 22.10, Kinetic. I already tried re-installing pulseaudio, killing the service, work with Alsa, also installed sof-firmware, but nothing worked... or maybe i did something wrong. Please help me and thank you in advance for your time :)

inxi -A command in terminal give me the following info:

Audio:
  Device-1: Intel Comet Lake PCH-LP cAVS driver: snd_hda_intel
  Sound Server-1: ALSA v: k5.19.0-31-generic running: yes
  Sound Server-2: PipeWire v: 0.3.58 running: yes

Update, i think that i almost got it, reading around the web, i think that im having this issue: "https://www.linux.org/threads/dummy-output-ubu-22-10-please-help-im-devastated.41066/"

my output for inxi -xxz --audio is the following:

Audio:
  Device-1: Intel Comet Lake PCH-LP cAVS driver: snd_hda_intel v: kernel
    bus-ID: 00:1f.3 chip-ID: 8086:02c8
  Sound Server-1: ALSA v: k5.19.0-31-generic running: yes
  Sound Server-2: PulseAudio v: 16.1 running: no
  Sound Server-3: PipeWire v: 0.3.58 running: yes

So i run

systemctl --user enable pulseaudio

it works, but then i run

systemctl --user start pulseaudio

and i get

Job for pulseaudio.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl --user status pulseaudio.service" and "journalctl --user -xeu pulseaudio.service" for details.

here are the detais for each file:

i keep looking for the solution for making run

systemctl --user start pulseaudio

but nothing worked yet, any help would be nice, thanks in advance, again.

Are you using pipewire or pulseaudio? `inxi -A`will tell you. Add it to your question, not into the comments.

Did you solve your issue? I got an error close to yours, with the same sound card

I solved the issue, or something like that. the main problem was that the drivers where from some weird japan company, it was not about linux the problem, i went to windows and i got the same problem, i used some weird drivers downloader from shady websites, and someway it fixed my problem, i had to use the translator from japanese to realize what was happening, but it fixed it. Sadly rn im using windows because i didnt find a way to fix it for Ubuntu.
I sit in a Tesla and translated this thread with Ai:

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.
