Regarding testing your audio in Jitsi, which you mentioned last night, there is an Android Jitsi app so you could install that on a device and have a wife or grandchild give you feedback whilst you play with the PC's set up which needs debugging. Also https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Sound_system might be useful for information on what programs do and how to test bits of the system. It does require knowing what alternatives your Kubuntu system is using, e.g. PulseAudio or PipeWire. -- Cheers, Ralph. -- Next meeting: Online, Jitsi, Tuesday, 2024-04-02 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk

Done it. I HAVE MY SOUND BACK. I was following https://itsfoss.com/fix-sound-ubuntu-1304-quick-tip/ and it worked. Not sure about the mic yet.

What's changed? - Have you had options for that audio card which you could happily change in the past? - Is it possible there are two competing audio systems wanting to take control of the hardware? - Does ‘sudo -i dmesg -Hxw’ show anything interesting as all this jumping is happening? It will keep displaying new kernel log messages as they arrive. Using that command the output was static with nothing about the sound output device. I am now trying Pulseaudio and it keeps resetting and trying to "establishing connection to Pulseaudio, please wait" I think that I have seen a similar problem before and it is necessary to remove and re-install Pulsaudio. I might try that tomorrow.
