[SOLVED] Audio not playing in fresh Arch install.

I'm at a loss here on what to do next.

I am using Gnome 3 desktop environment, and have alsa and pulseaudio installed.

No matter what I try, seemingly,

speaker-test -c 2

does not seem to work.

What I have seen so far:
- I have unmuted every major thing under alsamixer
- I have installed pavucontrol and set my ALC892 Intel Realtek device as default fallback
- I have muted all other audio outputs
- In my Sound settings, "Headphones" are selected by default
- When I speaker-test, pavucontrol shows that the output device is playing - yet I don't hear anything
-

aplay /dev/urandom -Dhw:0

seems to work for some reason, but playing a .wav file on my desktop as

aplay /path/to/file.wav -Dhw:0

doesn't seem to work
-

cat /proc/asound/cards

shows my device as 0th on the list, but pulseaudio shows my default playback device as 1 for some reason

[    5.715336] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC0D0: autoconfig for ALC892: line_outs=3 (0x14/0x15/0x16/0x0/0x0) type:line

[    5.715343] snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC0D0:      Line=0x1a

^ That's my

dmesg | grep codec

output.
Any help would be appreciated.

What does this mean?  Is there an error?  What is the ouput?  Is the output ok, just no sound?  Post the results of those commands here.

There is no sound anywhere. No errors appear.

Re: [SOLVED] Audio not playing in fresh Arch install.

Ok, then what is the output?  `speaker-test` should provide output on the command line, post it here.

Re: [SOLVED] Audio not playing in fresh Arch install.

speaker-test 1.1.6

Playback device is default
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels
Using 16 octaves of pink noise
Rate set to 48000Hz (requested 48000Hz)
Buffer size range from 2048 to 16384
Period size range from 1024 to 1024
Using max buffer size 16384
Periods = 4
was set period_size = 1024
was set buffer_size = 16384
 0 - Front Left
 1 - Front Right
Time per period = 5.639519
 0 - Front Left
 1 - Front Right
Time per period = 5.973147
 0 - Front Left
 1 - Front Right
Time per period = 5.973087
 0 - Front Left
 1 - Front Right
Time per period = 5.973527
 0 - Front Left
 1 - Front Right
Time per period = 5.973487
 0 - Front Left
 1 - Front Right
Time per period = 5.972896
 0 - Front Left
 1 - Front Right
Time per period = 5.973504
 0 - Front Left
 1 - Front Right
Time per period = 5.973270
 0 - Front Left
 1 - Front Right
Time per period = 5.973113
 0 - Front Left
 1 - Front Right

It repeats infinitely after that.

Post

aplay -lL
sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*
pacmd list-cards
pacmd list-sinks
pacmd list-sink-inputs

during this situation (with the running speaker-test).

Note: I am using a pair of Audio-Technica headphones as my audio, if that helps you filter out what is wrong.

Re: [SOLVED] Audio not playing in fresh Arch install.

You are neither playing to the correct device nor routing speaker-test over pulseaudio which would allow you to dynamically define this. Install pulseaudio-alsa (and remove any potentially existing ~/.asoundrc and/or /etc/asound.conf beforehand). Then for any given utility (speaker-test invoked without other parameters than -c2 as well) you will be able to move around applications from within pulseaudio. (pavucontrol or gnome's sound-control or whatever you want to use here) You will also want to define your USB headset as default (... and unmute it and in general increase it's volume)

Why did you initially mention that you switched to the internal soundcard while you apparently intend to have audio coming from your headphones?

Re: [SOLVED] Audio not playing in fresh Arch install.

Are you saying that I should use pavucontrol to control the audio coming to applications?
Because I've already done that.

The audio seems to be going through the correct output, but I don't hear anything.

Re: [SOLVED] Audio not playing in fresh Arch install.

Solved.

For anyone who's as dumb as me, and also has this issue, literally just unplug and replug your headphones.

Thanks.
