I just checked it:

I could show a newscast from France 24. Both audio and video worked

* with firefox
* with an alternatively snap-installed Chromium browser.

On my trials mentioned above, I also used Version 92.0.4515.107
(Offizieller Build) snap (64-Bit). I thought to have installed it the
apt install way, but possibly this is also just another way to really
get a snap packet. I was not aware of that.

What I could not test that way: On my target system, I uninstalled
firefox since I only need one browser. Installing something else is
possible on a live system (albeit the installation is only present until
shutdown). However, it is only possible as installing does not alter any
kernel component which apparently happens sometimes when updating
requires a reboot.

Anyway: Would it make sense to copy system files from the live system
(via a USB stick or directly by mounting the Linux system partition)?

Title:
  [VPCCA3S1E, Realtek ALC269, Speaker, Internal] Pulseaudio fails to
  detect card

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This problem came up after installing Xubuntu 20.04.02 on this
  computer, which used Xubuntu 18.04 before. Ifter installing the
  system, I installed some programs, among them Sound Switcher Indicator
  2.3.6 and I unistalled firefox after I had installed Chromium instead.

  My first test of Audio/Video:
  When streaming e.g. from https://www.france24.com/fr/direct, I can see the 
video part but I hear nothing. I am sure that the loudspeaker is not muted. 
pavucontrol shows me a blue slider switch. Its tab "playback" shows a varying 
Chromium playback indicator and the associated fader has influence on the 
amplitude of the shown intensity.

  (Note: I am using a German version so my transaltions of the items
  might be off a bit, still I hpe that it can be understood).

  I have no HDMI cable connected to the computer and no USB-sound device
  is plugged into it. The laptop has an internal microphone and an
  internal loudspeaker.

  In pavucontrol's tab "output devices" it shows something like "no
  output devices available" when "only hardware devices" are selected
  there.

  In pavucontrol's tab "configuration" I can select nothing.

  I am quite confident that this is not a hardware bug, because the
  audio system worked before I upgraded to Xubuntu 20.04.02.

  I also tried alsamixer. in F2 it offers two cards: 0: PCH and 1: HDMI.
  When I type 0 there to select the PCH one, nothing happens. If I type
  1, nothing happens either (I expected the latter since there is no
  HDMI-device connected). In the levels above, one of the offered items
  is highlighted and the selection can be moved by up or down.

  Most of the files in /proc/asound are empty:

  $ ls -l /proc/asound

  -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 2021-07-30 17:46 version

  
  Probably this will give a hint (perhaps it is also visible from the 
automatically collected information).

  I think I had tried the sound system with the live stick before
  installation. But I'll repeat that test again and tell you the
  outcome.

  Kind regards
