Public bug reported: Description: Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS Release: 18.04
No sound playing on internal speakers, headphones (bluetooth which now no longer connect, or when plugged in through a wire) or wired earphones. Internal microphone also not working. Issue seems to have arisen following latest software update within Ubuntu 18.04. These all work fine on the Windows partition I also have on the Dell Inspiron 5379 machine. Attempts tried that had no effect: 1. Muting and un-muting speakers through settings (internal speakers are recognised but not playing). 2. Muting and un-muting, changing sound levels and sound card in alsamixer. 4. Running sudo alsa force-reload 5. Updating Ubuntu software and rebooting. 6. Checking input and output devices on pavucontrol (can see built-in audio analogue stereo sound slider is responding to e.g. youtube videos, but no sound actually produced. 7. Running rm -r ~/.config/pulse; pulseaudio -k, then rebooting.
