No sound in my arch KDE installation

I have pipewire installed on my system and I don't have any sound coming out from speakers or headset. It shows full volume on taskbar and multiple output source are shown. I reinstalled pipewire but nothing changed.

Re: No sound in my arch KDE installation

First, make sure the correct audio output device is selected in KDE System Settings -> Input & Output -> Sound.

Re: No sound in my arch KDE installation

Now, sound that should be coming from right speaker is coming from left and sound that should come from left speaker is coming from left. There are 2 sources showing in sound and settings page.
1. Family 17h/19h/1ah HD Audio Controller Pro
2. Rembrandt Radeon High Defintion Audio Controller Pro
and sound only comes from 1st one.

Re: No sound in my arch KDE installation

Family 17h/19h/1ah is onboard chipset sound hardware (the one where you use 3.5mm jacks to the mic and speakers), the Rembrandt is from your AMD GPU via HDMI.

"Pro Audio" is a profile of pipewire. If you click on "Show Channels" at the onboard one (hidden behind the popup menu in your screen), what are the channel volumes?
