No sound in most apps after re-assigning speakers sink to headphones port (Matebook 14s hack)
This is a weird one, I don't even know how to phrase the title. I've got a laptop on my hands which has some issues with the jack detection: it's "inverted", so that the audio plays in the speakers only when a jack is inserted.
The Arch wiki has a nice workaround:
pactl set-sink-port alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3-platform-skl_hda_dsp_generic.HiFi__hw_sofhdadsp__sink '[Out] Headphones'
(the port name might be different on PipeWire)
I haven't tried this in PulseAudio, but with PipeWire it almost works. I can hear the "volume changed" sounds when dragging the volume slider in pavucontrol
, but no other apps can play sound. I don't remember exactly if I can't move the apps to the sink, or if I can but there's no sound.
Tested on Fedora 36 (PipeWire 0.3.56).
