Hardware • Re: Pipewire not allowing me to change audio devices

Correction: It's the USB Audio that I am using and it's what works over that port in Windows. Not the HDA-Intel - HD-Audio Generic. That is one of the AMD GPUs and not what I wish to be using. (Super confusing.. Intel sound on AMD card...)

The USB audio is also now what shows up as active in both GNOME and Pavucontrol. I can see the dB bar going up and down when sound in both GNOME and pavucontrol. There's just no sound.

It seems my receiver detects the digital signal (PCM?) from the optical spdif connection as well, but nothing but silence. Very odd.
Sorry for the earlier confusion regarding the devices. It's confusing with so much in the system. Doubly confusing that it's a "USB" audio controller that is the onboard one.

Let me also add that I will likely just be passing this through as either a PCI device or USB device to a guest VM anyway. I was going to originally do it with pipewire-jack but not much point now that I understand what is going on.
If you would like me to though. I can continue to try to figure this out if it might help someone else.

Thanks.
