Updated main PC to latest version. Now Gnome displays: not output device for audio. I am tired of this crap. Seriously. Either the laptop is falling apart or some crappy Linux went kablooey.

  • Nothing a good reboot cannot fix. But shoot, this is not freaking windows. I am supposed to restart an audio subsystem, not the whole operating system! (Grumble, grumble, shakes fist at laptop)

  • @ParadeGrotesque@mastodon.sdf.org My experience of linux audio is that its a dark fucking mystery. If i manage to get it working i freeze the whole distro at that point and never update any of it again, until after many years pass and new apps won't work because I'm 7 glibc versions behind. Then i install a fresh latest distro and start all over again.
