Hi Everyone, So I deleted the VM and started over, using: debian-13.2.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso in VmWare Player. Twice now, I got part way through the talking installer and the voice just stopped. I apparently could not finish the install with just the default enters, because it didn't finish installing with just entering. So I stopped the VM and booted into my Ubuntu 24X that I installed a long time back. It needed updating and upgrading, so I did that, there were several hundred packages to be upgraded. Along the way, it went totally silent too. In the Ubuntu, I went in with SSH from Windows and tried alsamixer, and it said there were no sound devices. speaker-test runs with no sound and no errors. Both aplay and paplay play a small file with no sound and no errors. Pipewire seems to be present there too. On the Ubuntu, what can I do to let alsamixer and/or pulseaudio find my soundcard? I thought that maybe pipewire is muting things, but if amixer does not see a soundcard, I don't know what else I can try in the CLI. Thanks for any ideas.
