No Input/Output devices appearing with Pipewire on Arch Linux [Fixed]

secretknowledge · 2023-12-11 22:49:14

Recently I reinstalled arch linux and have been setting it up with i3 + picom. Unfortunately, while the services are running they do not get detected and pavucontrol only shows dummy devices. I have pipewire-pulse installed. Thank you!

wireplumber as well? Outputs of

sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*
aplay -lL
sudo dmesg | grep -iE 'snd|sof'
systemctl --user status pipewire{,-pulse} wireplumber
echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS

Please see my link for pasting outputs and if you post them here, wrap them in [ code][ /cpde] tags like I did in my post.

You don't have any soundcards detected on a system/kernel level. Make sure your using the current 6.6 kernel, maybe even test linux-mainline since this appears to be a new board. Did you try to create any ALSA configuration?

I'm currently using linux-zen with no ALSA configs. This has worked for me in the past. Thank you!

V1del · 2023-12-12 23:07:01

Has this worked before with this exact hardware? Which mainboard is this? Very big maybe, try installing alsa-firmware

secretknowledge · 2023-12-12 23:18:32

It has worked for this exact setup before, and alsa-firmware is installed. Thank you!

secretknowledge · 2023-12-13 00:22:17

The mainboard is a Gigabyte Aurus Elite AX v2 if that helps. It has worked for be before running hyprland

V1del · 2023-12-13 00:53:44

Install alsa-plugins, strace and post the output of

strace aplay -l

Do you have parallel Windows installs? Can you test with the LTS kernel?

Output here: https://bpa.st/raw/SVKA

I do not have parallel Windows installs or the LTS kernel but can get the kernel if needed. Thank you for your help.

V1del · 2023-12-13 01:23:00

Test the LTS kernel, for some reason you're not assigned a device node for the sound card.

secretknowledge · 2023-12-13 01:31:50

Now i3 isn't starting with the lts kernal.

secretknowledge · 2023-12-13 01:33:08

I can try pulse audio and see if that works. I would prefer Pipe wire tho

secretknowledge · 2023-12-13 01:47:07

I did manage to get PulseAudio working, but I can't seem to uninstall PipeWire.

Nevermind I fixed it thank you

V1del · 2023-12-13 02:51:03

You did what exactly? https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Genera … way_street

None of switching to pulse should've had an effect on the fact you didn't have ALSA devices, unless you really had a custom config floating around.
