If you can get local to that machine and not use ssh to connect you may
want to check the internal sound chip and if it has failed, you may need a
new motherboard. The hard drives here can't verify downloaded files any
longer so it's likely this computer also needs a new motherboard.

It was working, and decided to stop talking.
I also tried your idea about the power maybe not being enough, and tried a
bigger PS.
This Intel NUC will use anything from 9 to 19 volts for power.
I was using an old Braille & Speak 12 volt PS, and I replaced it with a
laptop PS.

I'm glad you had an external sound card to use and I'm glad I offered you
that suggestion.
If you're not using the latest version of Ubuntu frimware is likely to be
old on that version and may not include firmware for your internal sound
chip. If you're using the latest version of ubuntu and this
Hi Jude,
Here's an update.
After stumbling around with alsamixer, it finally booted into the GUI and
Orca talks.
This is, however, through the USB external card.
So on the desktop, I looked at system preferences, hardware, and sound, it
only showed the USB soundcard, as a choice of devices.
So al
Have you tried orca --replace lately?

There are two choices when I press F6, the Intel PCI audio and USB1.
The latter is likely the USB audio card, but I tried both anyway, and the
audio comes out the external USB soundcard, in the terminal.
That is with all terminal audio tests.
But either choice gives me nothing in the GUI with Orca

Hi Jude,
I think card 0 is unmuted, but I don't know how to select it as the main
source.
I tried
pacmd set-default-sink card0
and it did not recognize card0 or card 0 as a device name.
Based on the below, from pacmd list-sinks
I get the list, but I don't know what name to use:

1 sink(s)
Try running pulseaudio in ssh with nothing on the command line, that may
start it up.

Run alsamixer again then hit f6 and see if you can choose the usb sound
device. If so do that then escape out of there.
Next run aplay -L -c 1 and see what information you get back. It'll
likely be a PCM that's usually how usb cards come out and that should have
a number after it. If it's PCM 1,

How do I get the desktop to use that from the CLI, so I have use of Orca?

amixer should let you unmute audio devices and set the volume.

Hi Jude,
in terminal, I ran
paplay file.wav
and it played like with aplay.
Then, via SSH, I ran
pulseaudio --status
and it came back with
unrecognized option --status

Is pulseaudio not always running?
Here's where I'm at now.
I plugged in a USB soundcard, and in the terminal, I can play a wav file
with aplay.
But no GUI audio.
Orca should be running, but there is no sound.
speaker-test and aplay do work now in the terminal with the USB soundcard.
Is there a com
Was pulseaudio started before that script got run? If not, pactl has

Hi Jude,
I did remove asound.state.lock, but there is no card 0 there.
When running alsamixer, there is no choices that the arrow keys move to
after pressing F6.
It does say default PCM headphone, but I hear nothing else.
Maybe I am not getting the feedback because it is over SSH.
