persistant loss of sound ("dummy output") after upgrade to 22.04 and 22.10

us flag
ErichBSchulz

I've sunk about 4 hours so far on this and tried all the common solution that have worked for others. I first lost my sound on upgrade to 22.04 and it's still not come back after upgrading to 22.10.

Below what I've tried and output of various diagnostic commands I've seen.

Please help!

Things tried:

Have tried the following (in some cases multiple times)

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt dist-upgrade
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt install update-manager-core
sudo do-release-upgrade


sudo touch /usr/share/pipewire/media-session.d/with-pulseaudio
systemctl --user restart pipewire-session-manager
sudo alsa force-reload

pulseaudio --kill
pulseaudio --start


sudo ln -s /usr/share/pipewire /etc/pipewire
sudo touch /usr/share/pipewire/media-session.d/with-pulseaudio
systemctl --user restart pipewire-session-manager
systemctl --user start pulseaudio

sudo apt install libldacbt-{abr,enc}2
sudo apt install libspa-0.2-bluetooth pipewire-audio-client-libraries pipewire-media-session

options tried in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

options snd-hda-intel dmic_detect=0

and also:

options snd-hda-intel model=generic

sudo vim /etc/default/grub

changed: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" To: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="intel_iommu=on,igfx_off"

then, of course:

sudo update-grub
reboot

Diagnostic commands:

erich@erich-nuc:~$ pactl info | grep '^Server Name'

Doing an upgrade is never a good way to solve a problem all you did was carry it over.

Just for the sake of completeness: I installed Ubuntu 22.10 on a new laptop but I consistently got the `Dummy output`. It turned out that I had configured an audio client (`squeezelite`) to start up at boot. When I removed it, the audio worked as designed.

Doing

sudo apt update

sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt install update-manager-core

and

sudo touch /usr/share/pipewire/media-session.d/with-pulseaudio

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.
