Speakers -> Worked via Line OUT for months
Take PC apart and change PSU, assemble PC back.
Speakers - Line OUT detected but can’t test Left/Right audio channels, options missing. No AUDIO from speakers unless I select them as default in Pavucontrol or manually assign outputs via Helvum.
Fedora 43 GNOME

How do I get my GNOME audio settings to work again?
This is so random and funny at the same time… yet frustrating because it makes no god damn sense :D


Seems like it’s GNOME issue or something driver issue with more recent update. Fresh install works again until I do a system update then it breaks again. I’ve tried CachyOS GNOME and the same issue again
Hey I tested the downgrade script and it fixed my issue just like you suggested. But of course now my OS wants to update the files back to the version I rolled back from. It doesn’t seem to be a forced update and I updated and upgraded everything before I tried this but I was wondering if the issue will immediately return once I allow the system to go back to version 49.4-1.fc43.
Doesn’t look like there is any way to skip those file updates so I suppose I just need to do the downgrade again if the sound problem returns? Hoping the next revision of gnome-control-center resolves it.
Thank you again for your efforts and information sharing. This is what I love about the Linux community and it is making the transition from commercial slop-ware so much easier.
Yes, right now it’s just a temporary workaround but it seems it’s being worked on.
