They were working fine for years but now the dummy output profile is selected by default. What happened? This can be worked around by explicitly setting: set-card-profile 0 output:analog-stereo set-sink-port 1 analog-output-headphones or by reverting back to pulseaudio_1%3a8.0-0ubuntu3.8_amd64.deb ( along with libpulse0 ) . When I try to use apport it gets to the end and says "apport cannot connect to crash database" but I have included example system details in the attachment after the output of pacmd list sinks and default.pa.
