Defender speakers are not detected

I have no output from these commands:

doas dmesg -T -H -L -w
doas journalctl -fe
watch lsusb

I tried with the mainline kernel, still it is not detected and tried to restart pipewire pipewire-pulse and wireplumber services, which all don't work.

Re: Defender speakers are not detected

What do you mean by "no output"? Do you mean the shell just goes down to the next line when you press enter as if no command was run at all? Or is there an error message?

What is the output of

pactl list sinks

No output in dmesg/journalctl and watch lsusb.

Re: Defender speakers are not detected

How are they attached? USB? Anything self respecting USB and audio should be plug and play

#immediately when attaching
sudo dmesg -W
#Abort that with Ctrl+C after getting the output from the plugin attempt
aplay -lL
pactl list cards
pactl list sinks
uname -a
pacman -Q linux
