[SOLVED]Audio not working

I recently moved my SSD from a laptop (since it died) to a desktop, and audio is not working (not a surprise, but I cannot manage to fix it). My computer has a Nvidia card connected to a monitor through DisplayPort.

I play a Youtube video on Firefox and get no sound. But if I check pavucontrol, it appears that the audio is being played. If I try running speaker-test, I get no audio.


These are the outputs of pacmd list-cards and (the relevant part of) lspci:

SOLUTION:
I installed the nvidia package and now sound works. I didn't change anything in particular, only generated the nvidia config file with nvidia-xconfig, restarted and now it works. So I guessed I forgot to configure something.

Re: [SOLVED]Audio not working

There are multiple HDMI profiles marked as available, have you tried switching between them, in e.g. pavucontrols configuration tab?

FWIW if you are using nouveau right now it has known problems with HDMI audio in the current kernel, it should still work in LTS afaik and work regardless if you opt for the proprietary drivers.
