Sound not working

Issues with sound not working with 2022.05.28 and lower

The Ubuntu development cycle between 22.04 and 22.10 sees Ubuntu move from Pulseaudio to Pipewire. The main problem is that since Rolling Rhino Remix utilises the Ubuntu development repositories to get rolling upgrades, the latest package update has stopped sound from working across all systems running Rolling Rhino Remix.

Follow the below commands to get sound working on Rolling Rhino Remix:

systemctl --user enable --now pulseaudio
sudo touch /usr/share/pipewire/media-session.d/with-pulseaudio
systemctl --user restart pipewire-session-manager

Once you have ran these it is recommended, but not required, to reboot immediately.

The first command enables the pulseaudio daemon, and runs it immediately rather than waiting for a system reboot.

The second command creates a file in /usr/share/pipewire/media-session.d so that the pipewire media session knows that it is utilising pulseaudio.

The final command restarts the pipewire-session-manager.

Once all of these have been ran, please reboot your system to get sound working on your system again.
