Pulseaudio not working

Post by EddieZR61 »

I'm having the same problem as this topic with no sound on my laptop. I got the error message when I attempted to open the Pulse Audio Volume Control. I uninstalled Pulse Audio Volume Control, but still no sound. Pulse Audio Equalizer or Pulse Effects will not launch, and there's no volume icon in the taskbar.

I'm a relative newbie to Linux and Mint so I'm confused and lost with most of what I've read in this thread. I attempted most of the fixes described but I either have an "access denied" message returned or nothing at all happens. Could someone walk me thru this process? Much appreciated if so.

Hi EddieZR61, and welcome to the forum.

I am going to request that a mod split this off into it's own topic as it is entirely possible your issue is very different than the OP's.

Based on what you've said so far, let's check for a permissions problem first. In the terminal type find $HOME ! -user $USER and if it returns a list of files, then type sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /home/$USER then finally try pulseaudio --start and test if your sound in now working. If you're testing with youtube or similar, close the browser/player first then open it again then test.

If that didn't fix everything paste back the results of running inxi -Fxz and aplay -l in the terminal. Also, start a song or video then in the terminal run pacmd list-sinks and include that output as well.

Good luck.

Hello. Sorry to say the instructions did not remedy the problem. The "find $HOME ! -user $USER" instruction didn't return a list. Here are the results of the 2 requests:

Re: Pulseaudio not working

Post by MrEen »

Hi Ed.

So far, things are looking pretty normal, which is a good thing. This should be fixable.

Is there any output from running sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/* in the terminal? If not, try pulseaudio -vv and it should spit out a bunch of lines. After several seconds hit Ctrl-C to stop it then paste that output back here.

Just in case you're already mostly fixed, if the fuser command returned any line(s) and all ended with the word pulseaudio, then start a song or video and run pacmd list-sinks in the terminal. Paste that output back here and we should be able to figure out why you're not hearing anything,

When pasting large blocks of text, please enclose the results in-between [ⅽode] and [/ⅽode] code markers by selecting </> from the mini toolbar above the textbox where you type your reply.

Good luck.

MrEen, thanks for help.

sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/* returned nothing.

pulseaudio -vv returned this:

Re: Pulseaudio not working

Post by MrEen »

Okay Ed. You've got a difficult one indeed.

1. Does running aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav in the terminal produce any sound or errors? If error, please paste.

2. What does [ -d /usr/share/alsa/ucm/bytcr-rt5651 ] && echo 'Yes' || echo 'No' return? Hopefully No. If Yes, try sudo mv /var/lib/alsa/asound.state /var/lib/alsa/asound.state.bak then reboot and test sound.

3. Can you try a complete shutdown (not reboot) and when powering back up, stop in your BIOS and see if a sound card is disabled. Also, if you have a dual boot with Windows, go into Windows first and make sure sound is working there then power off again. Now power up into Mint. Did that make any difference for your sound?

I should stop there for now. If the above doesn't help any, we've got more we can try. Step 2 was just to possibly undo what you may have done from the other thread that didn't apply to your system.

MrEen, 1st off, I have shutdown fully and started up a few times, but no change. I am also running Windows 10 on this laptop and the sound is fine there.

Running that 1st instruction did not produce sound. It returned this:

Code: Select all

edwardo61@ToshyEZR ~ $ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1029:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
aplay: main:722: audio open error: No such file or directory
The 2nd instruction returned:

Code: Select all

-d: command not found
No
So I did not run the 3rd instruction, yet.

Really appreciate your effort.
Ed

Okay, let's try a reload of the sound related stuff and see if that helps. Run these one line at a time in the terminal:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get remove --purge alsa-base pulseaudio
sudo apt-get install alsa-base pulseaudio
sudo alsa force-reload
When the terminal returns to the prompt, try aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav again. Same error?

Re: Pulseaudio not working

MrEen, Sorry, I was not able to get back to this sooner. I ran the 3 instructions and then the 4th one which returned this:

Code: Select all

ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1029:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
aplay: main:722: audio open error: No such file or directory


I read a comment somewhere that suggested manually cleaning out the directory that contains the corrupted Pulse files, but I have no idea how to locate that directory. I tried global searches but nothing came up.

Reload Mint?!

In your File Manager, click on View > Show Hidden Files, then in your home directory open .config/pulse and delete all the files there. Then run pulseaudio -k in the terminal (actually that'll probably just throw an error) then pulseaudio --start

If that doesn't help, reinstalling Mint may be what you need I'm afraid.

Good luck.

Actually, if the above didn't help, let's check dmesg | grep snd in case it gives us something we can work with.

Well, you've got me kicking myself for not trying that sooner. I was a little worried you had messed things up from that other thread, but I should have mentioned this sooner.

So glad you are fixed and happy to help. :D

I'm glad we went thru those steps. I did some research on what each one does as you listed them and it's been a good schooling for me.
Thanks again, Ed

just some more testing tools.

It's good that you're learning as you go instead of just blindly copy/pasting that'll be forgotten soon.

And could I ask something from you? What is your output of ls -la ~/.config/pulse? I messed mine up ages ago so only the cookie comes back after clearing the folder and I'm trying to make a tutorial on fixing things that I'd like to look a little more normal than my setup.

Thanks for those trytip! Those will come in handy. That last one gave me Failed to play sound: Sound disabled as it's probably trying to play to hw:0 by default and my setup uses hw:2. The first one played correctly and I altered the second for my case.
