Hit this issue when upgrading from Kubuntu 18.04 to 20.04. Solution was to "sudo apt purge timidity timidity-daemon" and the audio devices immediately were recognized by the system, didn't need to reboot.
This happened on a bog-standard 2015 era Intel-based laptop, nothing exotic. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1793640 Title: Pulseaudio fails to detect sound card, while timidity is installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/timidity/+bug/1793640/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
