[ubuntu-studio-users] On board sound has left the building...

[Mac]

Hi,

I'm sending this because I'm drawing a blank as to if I ever figured it out
before. (I've had enough coffee, so it must be age related memory loss.)
:(

I'm running UbuntuStudio 19.04. And have been using Ubuntu Studio Controls
exclusively for several months.

Until yesterday things were working pretty well in my studio. But, I took
my system to a gig and the USB mixer wouldn't boot. (So much for Allen &
Heath being high end gear...but, that another story.)

Before this debacle, I could route Pulse out to both my USB rig and onboard
speakers (simultaneously) , no problem. (I typically do this with Carla.)

Anyhow, after attempting to use the headphone out on my laptop to get
analog out to another mixer and tweaking UBS Controls I remembered I'd
never been able to get the headphone out to work, only the onboard speakers.

So, now back in the studio, I can only get sound from the usb rig. I can
route to the onboard (i.e. system:playback) but nothing comes from the on
board speakers.

In short, usb works but onboard audio seems to have been disabled. (here's
the memory loss...) what commands can I use to see whats up with the
onboard sound hardware? (I fired up alsamixer and made sure the usual
suspects were un-muted and up...)

Thanks,
Mac
