currently having a sound issue, im new to linux mint (and linux in general) so if anyone could help that would be great
im using a Steam Deck (LCD, 512gb ssd) with linux mint cinnamon! in pulseaudio it shows that the audio 'works', even though there is no actual sound coming from the machine! Alsamixer didnt work nor did reinstalling anything, im just annoyed since it has been going on for about 4 hours now. I made posts in the forums and reddit but that didnt yield anything
I attached the system information in the txt file since it probably wont fit here....

hmm, okay. I'm not familliar enough with the steamdeck. Your pipewire seems to be running. Perhaps someone with more knowledge will have a solution.

I found google gemini to be useful when troubleshooting things. it pulls information from the whole internet and there might be a clue to what's happening with your situation. don't enter commands blindly though. understand what it wants you to do and then decide. also check the sources it delivers

which is weird

#

i did try Liquorix but the problem continued even on XFCE

#

im not sure what causes this it is really confusing and annoying

#

the only "safe" way i can close the system in intentionally FREEZING the entire OS and holding the power button until it force closes which never causes the sound problem

#

but i am SURE it causes other problems
