Due to that, no device can be configured glad to KDE's sound widget: https://askubuntu.com/questions/976375/kubuntu-17-10-no-audio- devices-found-no-settings-no-sound sudo cat /var/log/syslog | grep pulseaudio [pulseaudio] module-equalizer-sink.c: module-equalizer-sink is currently unsupported, and can sometimes cause PulseAudio crashes, increased latency or audible artifacts. [pulseaudio] module-equalizer-sink.c: If you're facing audio problems, try unloading this module as a potential workaround. [pulseaudio] module-equalizer-sink.c: Master sink not found [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to load module "module-equalizer-sink" (argument: ""): initialization failed. Also, "apt purge pulseaudio-equalizer" doesn't remove "load-module module-equalizer-sink" from the .config/pulse/default.pa so it continues to fail at start afterwards. sudo cat /var/log/syslog | grep pulseaudio [pulseaudio] ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to open module module-equalizer-sink.so : module-equalizer-sink.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to open module "module-equalizer-sink".
