solved: speakers quit
Posted: Aug 15th, '17, 22:10
Like an idiot I plugged an analog speaker system into the port that is actually for a headset, mic and speakers. After this, the built in speakers have quit working. I tried configuring sound from the system tray and mcc and cannot get the speakers back. The system says it's using hdmi sound now, but the GUIs (eg in mcc) all show built in speakers as the output.
When I hit mute I get a pop in the speakers, and when I unmute another pop. But no sound comes through the speakers or through a bluetooth speaker I've tried.
I'm afraid I burned out the speaker system physically. Any help appreciated.
...well that was quick. I did modprobe snd_hda_intel and the sound is back. Don't know why the module got dropped, maybe something to do with "hot plugging" through the headset port?
