I tried to install a program called KX Studio and I wound up deleting my built-in audio.
When I right-click my task bar, go to 'System Settings' and to Sound, it no longer offers built-in audio as an option.
It does if I am logged in as a guest, so I am certain this is not a hardware issue. The sound definitely works when logged in as guest.
Here is a copy-paste from my terminal with the info from the 'how to get help' section. Thanks in advance for any advice you can provide.
