Re: Sound and microphone not working in arch

So far none of the solutions listed in the forums worked for me, including sof-firmware, adding files to /etc/modprobe.d folder, rebooting, checking pavucontrol for my soundcard being muted. However I just booted into my linux-lts kernel and suddenly my system is taking input in again. This is the only solution so far that's worked for me.

Thanks for the answer. The problem is that the driver that i have installed for the wifi (rtl8821cu: https://github.com/morrownr/8821cu ) is not supported by the lts kernel

Edit: Also sound doesn't work when booting into the lts-kernel

Re: Sound and microphone not working in arch

I just bought a Fusion5 C60Bv2 laptop and installed arch, I am having identical issues and all of the tricks from this thread and any others I could find did not work.  I also have the same wifi driver that doesn't work with the lts kernel, not that it's very relevant because that didn't fix the sound anyway....
Unfortunately I cannot find documentation for the hardware in this computer very easily, however I will post back here if I manage to.  Hopefully it is just a kernel regression and it gets fixed eventually...


Learning Dvorak was entirely worth it, solely because of the looks on people’s faces when they borrow my computers.
