For a month or something, after every restart I have to press mute/unmute shortcut on my laptop. Without that i don't have a sound.
This is a long shot but maybe I will temporarily help you

I'm actually not on a laptop.. But my speakers shouldn't be muted anyways (yet I still don't hear anything).
Thank you for replying though!

You could try restarting wireplumber:

systemctl --user stop wireplumber.service
rm -r ~/.local/state/wireplumber # optional, this deletes your settings
systemctl --user start wireplumber.service

If this fixes your problem temporarily it is likely releated to recent patches added to pipewire.

Sadly, this did not fix it. Thank you though.

I had a similar problem when I replaced my speakers.Try setting the default pulse devices.
Maybe this will help Oughie?

Thank you for responding, but sadly, that didn't fix the issue.

There's no normal audio card in any of your outputs. If your PC should have one, make sure it isn't disabled in BIOS/UEFI (and update said UEFI if one is available, issues here can often get solved that way). Also since you mentioned Windows: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dual_b … ibernation

Unless your speakers are actually attached to the monitor, then you currently have no active audio card. What exact PC/model/mainboard is this.

Fixed it!
I had to enable Onboard Audio Controller in my BIOS settings.
Thank you so much, I cannot put to words how happy I am right now to have sound again after 2 months!
