Public bug reported: I've had some trouble with sound recently after an update, it won't turn on. I've tried numerous things: from playing around with alsamixer, pulseaudio, pavucontrol to alsa force-reload and reinstalling alsamixer and pulseaudio. No result. It displays everything correctly and seems to be working, but the sound won't come out. On Windows it works perfectly. It did work well before, it just turned off unexpectedly.
I have a dual boot Ubuntu 18.04 with Windows 10, maybe that causes the bug. I think so because I've had some trouble with my wi-fi adapter not found, which was caused by Windows fast-boot option enabled. I've asked questions on askubuntu and linux stackexchange, no one knows. Someone suggested that I need to report a bug, and that's what I'm doing. I'm attaching link to the question, as I posted some information there: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/608305/no-sound-on- ubuntu-18-04-after-a-system-update I am not sure what I can do now to enable it... Please help. $ lsb_release -rd: Description: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS Release: 18.04 $ cat /proc/asound/version: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version k5.4.0-45-generic. $ aplay --version: aplay: version 1.1.3 by Jaroslav Kysela <pe...@perex.cz> I hope that I have given enough info about the bug, however if anything else is required, please feel free to ask me.
