[Solved]No audio anywhere on system, 'The system said: "Invalid State"

I installed Arch via the Archinstall script this morning, and I have no sound.
I selected profile Plasma for KDE plasma.


I can see the inputs and outputs in the audio chooser interface, but when I press "test" in the sound settings and click the test buttons I get the following error message:

Error trying to play a test sound. 
The system said: "Invalid state"

Apart from that I also have no sound output anywhere else, youtube videos refuse to start, no system sounds, and strawberry music player cannot start any tracks.

Searching around for what to do online I found various ways of debugging this issue that I'll provide below.
As far as I understand the archinstall script also creates a textual representation of all choices made, but I'm not sure where it is saved.

You have a conflicting sound daemon setup, either install pipewire-media-session and remove wireplumber if you want to stick to pulseaudio or switch to pipewire entirely by replacing pulseaudio with pipewire-pulse.

Re: [Solved]No audio anywhere on system, 'The system said: "Invalid State"

I found that post as well, weirdly though, components from both sides appear to be required by plasma. I uninstalled all that I could from the PulseAudio side. Now bringing me down to:

[user@laptop ~]$ pacman -Q | grep pulse
libpulse 17.0+r43+g3e2bb8a1e-1
pulseaudio 17.0+r43+g3e2bb8a1e-1
pulseaudio-qt 1.7.0-1

Trying to remove these three gives me:

[user@laptop ~]$ sudo pacman -R libpulse pulseaudio pulseaudio-qt
checking dependencies...

:: removing pulseaudio-qt breaks dependency 'pulseaudio-qt' required by plasma-pa
:: removing libpulse breaks dependency 'libpulse' required by qt6-multimedia
:: removing libpulse breaks dependency 'libpulse' required by strawberry

And on the other side running 

pacman -Qi kpipewire
....
Required By     : krdp  plasma-desktop  plasma-workspace  spectacle  xdg-desktop-portal-kde

So, I cannot remove the last parts of pulseaudio as it is required by plasma (via plasma-pa, via plasma-meta).
And the pipwire side I don't want to remove as that is the audio server that should be running. (As per the text here)

I have restarted in this state, and still have no audio.

Following the advice in the wiki post linked I have commented out the suspend on idle line, and will restart now to try that. If it does not work I will try and "replace pulseaudio with pipewire-pulse", though as shown in this post it's not entirely clear to me yet how to remove pulseaudio.

Re: [Solved]No audio anywhere on system, 'The system said: "Invalid State"

Commenting the suspend on idle line seems to have worked, as I now have idle from the test menu, and also strawberry can play tracks. Youtube videos also work. I will edit the thread title.

Re: [Solved]No audio anywhere on system, 'The system said: "Invalid State"

That's a hack because you're now just "winning the audio device race" against wireplumber. Properly switching to pipewire can be achieved by installing pipewire-pulse instead of all the packages related to pulseaudio and pacman will automatically prompt you for the replacements when you try to install pipewire-pulse.

Should you not want to do that and properly stick to pulseaudio, you should https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/WirePl … ntegration

Re: [Solved]No audio anywhere on system, 'The system said: "Invalid State"

Thanks, it indeed felt like a hacky solution.

I have now installed pipewire-pulse, and pacman indeed prompted me to remove pulseaudio. No other replacements where prompted, so none others seemed to have needed.

So, the state is now:

[user@laptop ~]$ sudo pacman -Q | grep pulse
libpulse 17.0+r43+g3e2bb8a1e-1
pipewire-pulse 1:1.2.7-1
pulseaudio-qt 1.7.0-1
[user@laptop ~]$ sudo pacman -Q | grep wire
kpipewire 6.3.1-1
libpipewire 1:1.2.7-1
libwireplumber 0.5.8-1
pipewire 1:1.2.7-1
pipewire-audio 1:1.2.7-1
pipewire-pulse 1:1.2.7-1
pipewire-session-manager 1:1.2.7-1
wireless_tools 30.pre9-4
wireplumber 0.5.8-1

So I now only have libpulse and pulseaudio-qt from the pulse side leftover. I cannot remove either of those, because of a number of packages requiring them.

[user@laptop ~]$ sudo pacman -R libpulse
checking dependencies...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)

:: removing libpulse breaks dependency 'libpulse' required by pulseaudio-qt

[user@laptop ~]$ sudo pacman -R pulseaudio-qt
checking dependencies...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: removing pulseaudio-qt breaks dependency 'pulseaudio-qt' required by plasma-pa

So, after adding pipewire-pulse and rebooting I still have sound, implying that the move to pipewire went correctly. Does this state seem correct?

Re: [Solved]No audio anywhere on system, 'The system said: "Invalid State"

yes, you don't want to get rid of libpulse, the majority of applications still want to talk to pulseaudio to provide audio, pipewire-pulse is a drop-in replacement that provides "pulseaudio" to all applications asking for it. libpulse is the layer applications use to "talk" the pulseaudio protocol.

Ah, I see, I see. Thanks a lot for the help. I'll leave this marked as Solved then.
