Hello @francus
Could you post the output link for this command.

inxi -Fxxxz --no-host | eos-sendlog

Edit: If inxi isn’t installed you’ll have to install it first.

yay -S inxi

I have two installations with the same problem:
the first gave http://ix.io/3pMH

the second gave http://ix.io/3pMG

I ran into a similar thing last week (probably update related) on 2 of my machines. I removed pulseaudio (required finding things that depended on it, and removing them first) and replaced it with pipewire. Instantly audio was back.\

I did no research on what caused it - I just ‘fixed’ it - so your inxi’s don’t help me! :grin:

@francus
Do you have sof-firmware installed? Both laptops have the same intel audio. Some of these chips require sof-firmware.

Edit: You could install it and reboot and see if it makes a difference.

sudo pacman -S sof-firmware
