[Solved] Second Monitor Detected by Xrandr But Not By KDE

I'm running SDDM x KDE Plasma at the moment and my second monitor stopped working suddenly after a reboot yesterday, I've tried quite a few things but nothing has really helped so I came here to see if you kind folks could help.
Here's the output of xrandr -q

$ xrandr -q

Edit: I fixed it by installing the sof-firmware package. I don't know why that fixed things but it did.

Re: [Solved] Second Monitor Detected by Xrandr But Not By KDE

stopped working suddenly after a reboot yesterday, I've tried quite a few things but nothing has really helped

Please don't paraphrase, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855

Post your Xorg log, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xorg#General and add some details:
* How does the output "not work™"? Do you get a "no signal" message via the OSD, can you still see the mouse cursor…?
* "second monitor" is the HDMI one ? You expect that and the eDP, not the eDP, HDMI and some DP one?
* Is this plasma on X11 or on wayland (echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE / loginctl session-status)?
* https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/KDE#Un … lution_set ?
* eDP-1 and HDMI-1-0 are configured to overlap, is that intentional?

Re: [Solved] Second Monitor Detected by Xrandr But Not By KDE

Oh, hey, sorry for the bad question and stuff, I'm a bit new around here. I also solved my problem, forgot to say that. I fixed it by installing sof-firmware.
