SUMMARY When configuring audio devices via systemsettings kcm_pulseaudio , you are able to select a profile for a device which it cannot support STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. $systemsettings kcm_pulseaudio 2. Select any audio device, and open the 'Profile' dropdown for it 3. Change it to something that is known to be incorrect for that device OBSERVED RESULT Naturally, this causes the device to be, for all intents and purposes, unusable for what it was built for. EXPECTED RESULT A button present that will perform a "hard reset" on all audio devices & their profiles, allowing a "from scratch" re-detection of everything, which would fix even the most egregious user UI errors (might be as simple as running the commands in my WORKAROUND section :) ) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.6 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.13.0 Qt Version: 6.8.2 WORKAROUND (This removal command may be a little too general for just profile resetting, but depending on what else the user has misclicked/set, it might be necessary): $rm -frv .local/state/wireplumber/ $systemctl restart --user wireplumber This should reset all audio device profiles to their defaults, and pipewire should auto-detect their ideal profiles. You will have to re-adjust volumes / captures for some of them, and restart certain apps (Chromium and Electron apps especially struggle with this), but you get your audio back
