Eickmeyerspectacular, sarnold: It's probably easier than that. Chances are the speaker volume is just down in aslamixer or qasmixer (qasmixer being the gui equivalent of alsamixer).00:41
sarnoldEickmeyer: that'd be very convenient if that's it00:42
spectacularEickmeyer, no, it's not... tried that00:43
EickmeyerIt was worth a shot.00:43
spectacularyeah I wish00:43
EickmeyerSometimes the problem can be found in pavucontrol too.00:43
sarnoldnod, that's my usual go-to "load pavucontrol and look around a bit"00:43
sarnoldI got focused on thinking of the kernel upgrade problems and the weird things that 6.2 kernels broke and forgot the basics00:44
spectacularok well here's what I see in pavucontrol... the sof-hda-dsp speakers + headphones sound bar is going as if it's producing sound. except it's not.00:44
EickmeyerBarring that, since it *is* Ubuntu Studio, one can also load patchance and see if anything is even connecting to the right device.00:44
spectacularEickmeyer, please explain patchance00:46
Eickmeyerspectacular: Patchance is basically a look at your computer's internal patchbay. It shows what your inputs are, what your outputs are, and anything that is producing sound or capable of receiving sound.00:47
spectacularin bright red at top of the patchance window, "JACK is not started!" in red00:47
spectacularand shows nothing on the brown background00:47
Eickmeyerspectacular: That isn't right. Sounds like you uninstalled pipewire.00:47
EickmeyerThat would explain a lot.00:47
sarnoldso confused :) 'patchance' sure sounds like a pulse thing, it presents a jack error message, and now you say that pipewire isn't there :)00:48
Eickmeyersarnold: ever hear of pipewire-jack?00:49
spectacularwould that explain why plugging in external earphones works, but the internal speakers don't?00:49
sarnoldEickmeyer: nope :)00:49
Eickmeyerspectacular: It would explain alot of things. I would recommend installing ubuntustudio-pipewire-config and then rebooting.00:49
* Eickmeyer designed the audio configuration in Ubuntu Studio 23.0400:50
spectacularthank you Eickmeyer I'm doing this right now :)00:50
spectacular"the following packages will be removed: pulseaudio"00:51
Eickmeyerspectacular: Yeah. pulseaudio isn't default in Ubuntu Studio 23.04.00:51
EickmeyerNot sure why you have it installed unless you need to bridge JACK (proper) to desktop applications.00:51
spectacularok i'm rebooting now... wish me luck... i'll be back in a minute or so00:51
spectacularEickmeyer, i'm back... no luck00:54
sarnold:(00:54
Eickmeyerspectacular: Ok, what's patchance got now?00:54
spectacularEickmeyer, ok, so, patchance does show stuff now, at least, unlike last time. so hopefully we're on the right track. ok. so it's showing on the left side, sof-hda-dsp capture, being fed into cinnamon input,00:55
EickmeyerCinnamon?00:56
spectacularhmm how can i pastebin a screenshot00:56

EickmeyerJust hits all the points at once. :)00:56
spectacularEickmeyer, sarnold, https://imgur.com/a/TWb2Pld00:59
Eickmeyerspectacular: I don't see anything playing back to your output.00:59
spectacularand Eickmeyer, yes, i have cinnamon as my desktop environment00:59
Eickmeyerspectacular: Did you install using Ubuntu Cinnamon or Ubuntu Studio?01:00
spectacularubuntu studio i believe01:00
spectaculari think so(?)01:00
EickmeyerHmm....01:01
spectacularyeah this is definitely ubuntu studio, i have all the audio and video stuff etc including stuff I've never used, tons of programs installed01:01
spectacularbut once it was installed I added cinnamon because I like it01:01
EickmeyerI see.01:01
spectacularok hold on i started some music playing, i'll send a new screenshot01:02
spectacularEickmeyer, https://imgur.com/a/TWb2Pld01:03
spectaculari have a youtube video playing but don't hear anything01:03
EickmeyerOk, so it's sending to the right output. Check alsamixer or qasmixer and make sure the output is up.01:03
spectacularEickmeyer, alsamixer shows: https://imgur.com/a/TWb2Pld01:05
sarnold*one* bar??01:06
Eickmeyerspectacular: That's not all it shows. Make sure you look at the entire sound card. F6.01:06
spectacularF6 has - (default) highlighted, and then has two more options, default:0 HDA NVidia, default:1 sof-hda-dsp01:07
EickmeyerYou want sof-hda-dsp.01:07
spectacularEickmeyer, https://imgur.com/a/KQ5Mw4801:09
sarnoldMM on headphones, is that intentional?01:10
spectaculari don't have any headphones plugged in at the moment?01:10
spectacularbut not particularly intentional no01:10
sarnoldahhh01:10
sarnoldI haven't got a clue what the CAPTURE columns mean, hopefully Eickmeyer knows what those do :)01:10
Eickmeyerspectacular: Plug in headphones and unplug them.01:10
Eickmeyersarnold: capture is inputs.01:11
spectacularwhen i plugged in the headphones, i heard music coming from them,, unplugged, no change01:12
spectacularoh, and I see the "headphones" change to 00 when I plug them in, and "Speaker" changing to MM.  Changes back when I unplug them.01:13
EickmeyerClose alsamixer and open qasmixer, click on hw and click on sof-hda-dsp.01:13
EickmeyerI want to see that screenshot.01:13
Eickmeyer(might be easier to navigate, too)01:13
spectacularEickmeyer, https://imgur.com/a/e1vVnLI01:15
EickmeyerInteresting.01:15
EickmeyerShow me pavucontrol.01:16
spectacularEickmeyer, this part? https://imgur.com/a/e1vVnLI ? or?01:18
EickmeyerNo, I meant PulseAudio Volume Control. Despite the name, it still works with PipeWire.01:18
spectacularthis was pavucontrol-qt01:19
EickmeyerOh, sorry. Hang on, didn't scroll.01:19
spectacularthat was pavucontrol... not showing much though. unsure if you wanted a different tab01:20
EickmeyerI don't see a pavucontrol-qt screenshot?01:20
spectacularsorry, posted the older link lol01:20
spectacularhttps://imgur.com/a/s0ShVOg01:20
EickmeyerI want to see the outputs.01:20

EickmeyerAnd in Configuration?01:22
spectacularEickmeyer, https://imgur.com/a/yepeJNq01:23
Eickmeyerspectacular: What other profiles are there?01:24
spectacularthat one, and Pro Audio01:24
EickmeyerWhat happens if you switch to Pro Audio?01:25
spectacularEickmeyer, still no sound.  https://imgur.com/a/3rN7Xwu01:27
Eickmeyerspectacular: The audio coming from Chrome seems to be very little, if any, to begin with.01:27
sarnolddoes that little blue sliver on the left side of the google chrome bar mean that eg the youtube volume slider is way down:01:27
sarnold?01:27
Eickmeyersarnold: That means that when it was captured there was very little if any sound from the app.01:28
Eickmeyersarnold: But wouldnt' explain why there would be sound when headphones are plugged in.01:29
spectacularEickmeyer, i have the youtube player's volume low because my wife's sleeping in the room beside me... we're on vacation in a one-room airbnb... but i just turned it higher to test. no change. https://imgur.com/a/3rN7Xwu01:29
spectacularEickmeyer, sarnold btw if i have that set to pro audio instead of "play Hifi quality music", I get no sound from earphones when they're plugged in either.01:32
spectacularIf I switch back to "play hifi..." I get music from earphones again. still not from speakers though.01:33
Eickmeyerspectacular: Unfortunately, I'm out of ideas. Since you don't have a decent environment to test in, and you don't have the default desktop environment installed (therefore, unsupported from my perspective), I don't know what to tell you. I'd say it's a hardware problem since I have multiple machines here running Ubuntu Studio 23.04 with that01:34
Eickmeyerconfiguration just fine and even the upcoming 23.10 too.01:34
Eickmeyerspectacular: If you want Ubuntu Studio but the Cinnamon DE, I'd suggest using Ubuntu Cinnamon and then using this.01:34
Eickmeyer!ubuntustudio-installer | spectacular01:35
ubottuspectacular: Ubuntu Studio Installer is an app that can be used to add Ubuntu Studio's benefits to an existing Ubuntu (or official flavor) installation, and/or add the !ubuntustudio-backports PPA. For more info, see https://ubuntustudio.org/ubuntu-studio-installer/01:35
sarnoldit certainly couldn't hurt to inspect all the wires and buttons on the soundbar etc in the light of the day01:35
spectacularit's a laptop01:36
spectacularand i can switch back to the default DE, i didn't remove01:36
EickmeyerYou could try that, but if you want Cinnamon, my point still stands as that's what Ubuntu Studio Installer is designed for.01:37
sarnoldhmm, laptop? I've been thinking desktop this whole time, what with all those ports, and a mention of a soundbar somewhere..01:37
sarnoldlaptops often have little buttons on them that mute radios or speakers or whatever and they completely wreck your day if you don't know they are there01:37
Eickmeyersarnold: All those ports happen as a result of a mere HDMI port.01:37
sarnoldcheck around the numbers or f-keys to see if you've got any little hieroglyphs that suggest muting something, and hit that :) -- maybe it requires holding down an Fn key01:37
spectacularlol i know the mute button01:38
sarnoldEickmeyer: can I please have SVGA port and 1/8"01:38
Eickmeyersarnold: XD01:38
spectaculari can switch out of cinnamon and see. even uninstall it if you suspect that's where the problem's coming from01:39
spectacularbrb01:40
sarnoldthe trouble is, installing a desktop tends to bring along dozens or hundreds of other packages, and they don't always uninstall cleanly :/01:40
EickmeyerIt's just a thought, but I do know that it can introduce an unknown if installed after-the-fact.01:40
sarnoldd'oh01:40
spectacularhi, I'm back, in Plasma now01:44
spectacularand still same issue01:44
sarnoldthe trouble is, installing a desktop tends to bring along dozens or hundreds of other packages, and they don't always uninstall cleanly :/01:44
EickmeyerI've got nothing, so I suspect a hardware issue, tbh.01:44
spectacularunderstood... but lemme just say - it was also working perfectly, in Cinnamon, until very recently01:45
EickmeyerYou're traveling, right?01:45
spectacularyes01:45
EickmeyerAir travel?01:45
spectacularyes01:45
sarnoldryan-air style landing or ...01:45
spectacularhaha lol nah it was pretty smooth01:46
EickmeyerSecurity checkpoint. No matter how careful you tend to be, it *will* get jostled around there.01:46
sarnoldspectacular: can you grab a live CD image of mint or debian or windows and try booting into that? that way you could take ubuntu out of the equation entirely01:54
spectacularthat's a great idea01:54
sarnold(at least I'm 90% sure mint kernels are independant of ubuntu kernels)01:54
Eickmeyersarnold: My knowledge on mint is about a decade old, but more or less independent.01:54
sarnoldI've never tried it myself, but I've seen more than one irc user trying to get mint help on irc and it's a kernel problem and their kernels are just vastly different from ubuntu kernels..01:55
spectacularI'll try that in the morning when I can get a usb stick... or when I return home tomorrow night. thanks so much sarnold  and Eickmeyer for trying so hard to help me... and... now I'm worried if it is a hardware problem... I guess the laptop's under warranty but yikes... plus, they don't like it when you take off their windoze and put on another OS01:55
sarnold*nod*01:55
sarnoldI made a disk image of my windows install before getting linux installed, on my most recent machine01:56
Eickmeyerspectacular: Yeah, if you can backup and restore it to factory, that might be best before taking it in for service if it is indeed hardware.01:56
spectacularok... so... thanks... i'll be back here in a day or so I guess to update you01:57
Eickmeyer👍01:57
sarnoldgood luck :D01:58

morgan-u2the discord page in FF does not "really" have a link fo "open discord in your browser". -  open discord.com and look at that link-place. It gets a mouseover pointing finger (as if there is a link) but l-click does nothing, and r-click does not give any link info (gives the text submenu). -- Bahhh! I wanted to switch to FF but. - Doscord as an app gives problems and discord in chrome is seamless.18:00
morgan-u2I have 22.04 up to date on some acer box, old.18:01
morgan-u2please use my nick if you care to answer me.18:11

arnold_I want to learn something about linux in geenral what i think will be useful for me. I have program which almost crashed. And it's stuck- window is opened but it doesnt load and there is no more to say- it's stuck. How to find this process in htop and kill it?18:20
mosfethard to say without looking at the code18:20
mosfetcan look at ps to see what's currently running18:21
arnold_when I type ps i get two lines- bash and ps18:21
morgan-u2This may help. I kill chrome with --  killall -9 chrome18:21
morgan-u2you dont need a process number.18:22
mosfetcan use xkill, anything you click in desktop enviornment will kill18:22
arnold_haha, ok, I'll just confess :D I wanted to launch Lego digital designer in wine :D18:22
morgan-u2thanks mosfet.18:22
mosfet;)18:22
morgan-u2<-- deliberately ignorant of wine.18:22
arnold_but the case is- should I look by the name lego or by the name 'wine' ?18:22
leftyfbarnold_: reboot18:22
morgan-u2well try mine first. you can always reboot.18:23
mosfetif you're running it in a wine instance, you can SIGTERM your wineserv in htop18:23
mosfetf3 wine, f9 enter18:23
leftyfbmorgan-u2: you don't need -9 with killall18:23
morgan-u2(lifts eyebrow and) listens18:23
arnold_wow, xkill method worked like a charm18:23
mosfetyeah xkill is great18:24
mosfetjust be careful, misclicks will wreck x11 lol18:24
