All,

I just upgraded to the 1/28/23 updates to KF5 102 and now I have no audio devices found. My USB headset is plugged in but KDE does not see it.

lsusb lists my USB headphones:
Bus 001 Device 009: ID 046d:0a37 Logitech, Inc. USB Headset H540

lspci lists my audio devices
04:00.5 Multimedia controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] ACP/ACP3X/ACP6x Audio Coprocessor (rev 01) 04:00.6 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Family 17h/19h HD Audio Controller

This appears to be a KDE issue. Is anyone else having this problem? Please note the problem started after installing KF5-102 and a reboot.


Hi Timothy!

These are a few things to check

- run alsamixer in console as your user and check that needed channels are not muted and volume levels are high enough
- be sure that you use one of these - PulseAudio or PipeWire (not both)
- chances for missing firmware are small for this device but Debian has a new section "non-free-firmware" so check output of dmesg command and in case of missing firmware you can add "non-free-firmware" to /etc/apt/sources.list (something like this)

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm main non-free non-free-firmware contrib

Files containing firmware files, you can find with "apt-file" package/command. Example:

# apt-file search firware101.bin

Kind regards
Georgi
