(alas didn't think to test many boxes with this today) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1899719 Title: Groovy live boots have sound muted by default on some boxes Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Lubuntu groovy QA-test (LIVE) on - dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e6850, 5gb, amd/ati radeon rv516/x1300/x1550) ** Background I've been noticing this for awhile (was noticed first on Xubuntu), eg. https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2020/09/25/%23xubuntu-devel.html "xubuntu groovy daily; I've had a number (3) of boxes boot with sound muted; this isn't intentional is it?" ** What occurred this boot Note this is not the initial boot of this box, it was booted twice with same results. Sound is muted, I can't get sound working using the PANEL volume control. I have to start `pavucontrol-qt` using the menu, go to the OUTPUT DEVICES tab, and click the 'speaker' button to enable sound. ** What I expect to occur I'd expect sound to be enabled by default. ** Further comments - this is minor, once fixed it's gone, also not all users will need sound & can be easily fixed as outlined. Most QA installs I don't re-use, but I do on occasion in support, I can't recall muted-sound reappearing (though most times I'd not use audio) - it appears to be box specific, and occurring only on some older boxes - this was filed with Lubuntu, but as initially noticed on Xubuntu (I've explored it before, but comments only made on IRC) - filed on kernel but could be pulseaudio, alsa or other?
