If alsa doesn't recognize the device, when it used to, then there is probably a hardware error. To be sure, you should check when alsa-lib was installed, rpm -qi alsa-lib If that was around the time your device stopped working, it could be a regression in the library. They do happen, but it isn't common. You can try a downgrade to an earlier alsa-lib by downloading the packages you have installed from here, https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=410 and install them with dnf -C downgrade [list of binary rpms] in the directory to where you downloaded them. If it is a discrete sound device, you could try reseating it, in case it is no longer making good contact. Do you have another sound device you can install as a check? If you run journalctl -b0 to look at the last boot, what does it show for sound device initialization? Is there any kind of error when it tries to activate the device that is no longer working? _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
