I get Dummy Output error and no matter what I do, the error is not fix

Librehosseini · 2024-03-29 14:36:07

I have installed all the necessary packages and tried all the ways, but my problem is not solved.

[arch@linux ~]$ systemctl --user status pulseaudio.service
Unit pulseaudio.service could not be found.

[arch@linux ~]$ systemctl --user status pulseaudio.socket
Unit pulseaudio.socket could not be found.

[arch@linux ~]$ pacman -Q | grep pulseaudio
pulseaudio-alsa 1:1.2.7.1-2

[arch@linux ~]$ pacman -Q | grep alsa
alsa-card-profiles 1:1.0.4-3
alsa-firmware 1.2.4-3
alsa-lib 1.2.11-1
alsa-plugins 1:1.2.7.1-2
alsa-topology-conf 1.2.5.1-3
alsa-ucm-conf 1.2.11-1
alsa-utils 1.2.11-1
pulseaudio-alsa 1:1.2.7.1-2

I have installed pulseaudio, but it gives an error during activation
[arch@linux ~]$ sudo systemctl enable --now pulseaudio
Failed to enable unit: Unit file pulseaudio.service does not exist.

[arch@linux ~]$ pulseaudio --start
[arch@linux ~]$

* What devices do you see in aplay -l ?
* Any difference when you executing as root?
* Do you see you audio card detected (lspci |grep -i Audio)
* Any particular reason you are using pulseaudio and not pipewire?

- No. How do I use pipewire? Now I installed all alsa packages and none of them worked

i installed pipewire-pulse and pipewire
But when I try to activate it, it gives these errors:

[root@linux]# systemctl --user enable pipewire.service
Failed to connect to bus: No medium found
[root@linux]# systemctl --user start pipewire.service
Failed to connect to bus: No medium found
[root@linux]# systemctl --user enable pipwire-pulse.service
Failed to connect to bus: No medium found
[root@linux]# systemctl --user start pipwire-pulse.service

[root@linux]# systemctl --user status pipewire.service

You literally don't have pulseaudio installed so you're likely on pipewire already, if not make sure pipewire-pulse and wireplumber are installed.

Post the output of

sudo fuser -v /dev/snd
pactl list cards
pactl list sinks

and wrap those in [ code ][ /code ] tags without the spaces

But when I try to activate it, it gives these errors:

Ideally you don't have to activate anything here, pipewire is socket activated, in doubt reboot.

[root@linux]# systemctl --user status pipewire.service
Failed to connect to bus: No medium found

Why are you doing this as root?
Don't try to su or sudo anything "systemctl --user" and generally don't try to just sudo-fix stuff.
