Problems with audio output

tiko7454 · 2022-06-07 16:20:20

when I run mpv -ao alsa ... it got stuck at the beginning

AO: [alsa] 48000Hz stereo 2ch float
VO: [gpu] 1920x1080 yuv420p
AV: 00:00:00 / 00:06:03 (0%) A-V:  0.001 Dropped: 3 Cache: 9.8s/1MB

when I run mpv ... it's going on

AO: [pulse] 48000Hz stereo 2ch float
VO: [gpu] 1920x1080 yuv420p
AV: 00:00:07 / 00:06:03 (2%) A-V:  0.000 Cache: 0.3s/86KB

but without any sound. Also I noticed that after plugging in my headphone (wired) I don't see them in helvum.

Did you remove pipewire-alsa?

tiko7454 · 2022-06-08 18:53:23

no effect after removing

What's the output of "aplay -L" and "ps aux | grep pipe" in this condition?
You could try https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Advanc … cture#Dmix though it should™ be enabled by default.

Finally: does "speaker-test" work? (Is gonna generate some noise)
And if not and your analog card isn't the "default" in "aplay -L", you can try "speaker-test -D <device from aplay -L here>", eg. "speaker-test -D pulse" will probably test the pulseaudio device.

asound.conf didn't exist

no sound from speaker-test

I tried speaker-test -D sysdefault, alsa, pulse. No sound

V1del · 2022-06-09 08:09:01

on such a speaker-test sysdefault might make some sense but generally

speaker-test -Dhw:0 -c2

if that doesn't give you audio then you have a lower level issue on the kernel/codec level or something physical. Do you have speakers connected even? Are they in the correct jack?

tiko7454 · 2022-06-09 10:23:03

That also didn't work
As I mentioned before I have no physical issues with the speakers because they do work on windows. They are built in with my computer.

V1del · 2022-06-09 11:10:19

How did it not work? Did you get a resource busy error or did you actually see attempts to play to the speakers that you didn't hear? For the former case make sure pipewire or pulse is completely stopped, for the latter try the following.

Mhm, I don't see anything generally wrong in the alsa-info.sh completely stop pipewire/pulseaudio (

systemctl --user mask  pipewire pipewire-media-session pipewire-pulse --now

unmask to reenable) and try using hdajackretask from alsa-utils on whether you can change some PIN setup to actually enable the speakers. Technically in dmesg there's a line that it detected line out and headphone but no speaker jacks maybe that has a relation here..

Alternative not guaranteed to work based on the HDA model list /etc/modprobe.d/fixSpeaker.conf

options snd-hda-intel model=alc274-dell-aio

yes

https://files.catbox.moe/8ano00.png
https://files.catbox.moe/qv3dqc.png
what to do here?

I added that option to that file (I created that)

(also say when I should unmask it, because now I masked it)

Internal speaker, in hdmi try select model auto..
don't uninstall nothing..

tiko7454 · 2022-06-11 16:45:40

that didn't help, moreover, now helvum shows nothing. No pins, nothing. Just a grey field of square tiles. (I tryed both, while masked, and while unmasked) So maybe it's because of mask, maybe because ov model auto (I ran that app with sudo because as normal users it couldn't do anything. It asked for systemd AUTHENTICATING, after I write my password I got a message like

Error executing command as another user: Not authorized

so I opened hdajackretask with sudo)

I've no knowledge about hdajackretask but you're not trying to use the HDMI output, something that doesn't seem to get into geopardo's head.

https://launchpad.net/~namo-amituofo

options snd-hda-intel model=dell-headset-multi

(don't use the string from launchpad, it's some cyrillic-for-latin stuff)

geopardo · 2022-06-11 19:36:31

ah understand now..

Is a normal issue when you having a fresh ark installation..
https://files.catbox.moe/qv3dqc.png
i can see mic on this chipset.. can be the right way to solve this audio issue..
do you have external physical connection? four or six?

so is internal speaker is related to a monitor speaker connection...
no monitor speaker, this can't working.. u need to connect via gpu, whit hdmi cable in monitor for work his speaker.
or green output on motherboard audio card chipset.

https://files.catbox.moe/8ano00.png

now i'm using gpu card audio chipset... and monitor speaker ...

He has speakers connected, confirmed that the hardware works and is not (so far) interested in using HDMI for audio.
*Your* hardware configuration is utterly irrelevant to the OPs situation.

geopardo · 2022-06-11 20:08:02

I'm using 4 HDMI displayport and same way for listen audio in ark.. is an example.. he can resolve this issue..

tiko7454 · 2022-06-13 12:54:03

the same issue from mpv (this doesn't go on)

AO: [alsa] 48000Hz stereo 2ch float
VO: [gpu] 1920x1080 yuv420p
AV: 00:00:00 / 00:06:03 (0%) A-V:  0.001 Dropped: 3 Cache: 8.6s/1MB

maybe after all this configurations I broke alsa. How to fix this?
(I tried brave, and I get no sound)
Also in alsamixer, it's switched to pulseaudio (it was pipewire)
Also in alsamixer, I have more PDIF-s (I have no idea what it is, but this info can be useful)

Note: I used this

 options snd-hda-intel model=dell-headset-multi

seth · 2022-06-13 13:40:42

Also in alsamixer, it's switched to pulseaudio (it was pipewire)

pacman -Qs alsa

maybe after all this configurations I broke alsa

We haven't gotten the audio chip to play anything at any moment (iirc not even on other distros, yes?)
There's no reason to believe that you broke alsa (unless you withheld any information).

tiko7454 · 2022-06-13 15:22:27

Also in alsamixer, it's switched to pulseaudio (it was pipewire)

just this was weird. And yes, no sound on any live distro out of the box (both debian based and arch based)

V1del · 2022-06-13 20:33:44

This is "normal" pipewire-alsa and pulseaudio-alsa respectively provide an ALSA config to redefine the default ALSA mixer device to their respective daemons. If you want to actually check the physical HW controls pass the actual card index with the -c parameter, so

alsamixer -c0

which will access the actual low level card mixers.

tiko7454 · 2022-06-20 12:07:01

so any ideas?

sorry

damnbug · 2022-06-20 14:39:31

Have you tried to use pavucontrol?

V1del · 2022-06-20 16:33:26

If you can't figure it out with model options nor with hdajackretask you'll want to open a kernel bug report, the only other suggestion I have is updating your BIOS/UEFI to check whether HP failed something basic in their firmware.

@damnbug we have established the bug to be at an earlier level than what pavucontrol can manipulate.
