I wake in the morning and I step outside, I take a breath and I get real high and I scream from the top of my lungs AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Who wants to help me fix my audio issues?? 😂 Not joking… 😅
Dont ask, describe the issue
What problems are you having specifically?
With all the myriad problems I’ve had with linux, audio was never one of them. Hell, my android is worse with audio. Looking at this thread, I’m apparently very lucky

And so I wake up in the morning and I look outside, and I take a deep breath and get real high and I scream at the top of my lungs “What’s going on?”
I told claude i have a weird crackle sometimes. It identified some subsystem keeping s connection open, forcing small packets.
Fixed in a minute. Never anymore issues with that.
Is Claude a true linuxer?
Yesterday I gave claude remote access to my Chinese android car stereo. It was opening apps, taking screenshots, backing things up and decompiling them to check for malware. Now I’m going to remove everything unneeded like media apps and Google Play services to make the system faster.
I’ve had a few “holy shit” moments with AI over the past month or so that I haven’t had since late 2022/early 2023. Crazy times, we are in for a ride…
As long as you don’t bootloop or brick your device by removing something crucial. Some people have managed that with their Android TVs.
At a LUG, helping a new Linux enthusiast solve their ALSA IRQ issues in '98, did indeed make me feel Hey-ya!
* It was lucky I had chewed through the exact same issue, 3 weeks before. Must have looked like a space wizard.
So this is strangely specific but on nobara I have a second audio output slider for each application when I look at volume controls. Its not functional at affecting the volume of the app.
Any ideas?
I once spent a month trying to compile a kernel and sound driver for a SoundBlaster Gold card in Mandrake 6. I still have flashbacks to that time.
You know what, I’m good just sitting here in silence.
I had completely forgotten about mandrake, thanks i guess…?
On the topic of audio. Does anyone know how to fix microphones in the game Squad? My mic works for discord and also in the steam microphone test, it just doesn’t seem to register in game. I really want to play more of these teamwork based games but it is really hard to do so when I can’t effectively communicate with the people in my squad.
I am on TuxedoOS with a HyperX Quadcast if that helps with troubleshooting.
Im more surprised it works at all considering it uses eac
Audio is one of the very short list of things windows actually handles better. I have a very nice DAC for my iems and on Linux it is stuck at sub cd quality. On windows I can go 32bit audio :/
You can also do 32-bit audio on linux. Also what do you mean by sub-CD?
I would assume he means sub 44.1k Hz and 16-bit.
True! Helping somebody less experienced than you solve a problem is a rush. I’ve had the same experience helping people with 3d printing problems.
Hey that’s my Halloween costume this year
Can you help my audio crackles whenever my CPU starts to do something resource intensive? Or with KWIN under Wayland lagging as well when the CPU also starts to cook itself? Breaking keyboard inputs and mouse. BTW this is when I intentionally overload the CPU lol. I could just switch back to x11 like the bitch I am though. But like I enjoy having a GPU rendered desktop and not going through x11 for everything.
guys my motherboard audio jack makes a loud pop 16 seconds after the last sound was played 😭
Just in case you’re not referencing a shitpost: shitty power optimizations, can be disabled.
