Hi, I'm encountering a strange issue where videos are muted. Only video files, my systems sound is working fine, I can play mp3's watch youtube etc.
Sometimes it does work, but if I skip the video at all, the sound breaks. I've tried mpv, celluloid and vlc, none play sound in a video. In the volume mixer I can see the meter going up and down so it does recognise that sound is being played.
I only have one sound output, my hdmi cable, so the sound isn't going to some other device.
Once just opening pavucontrol fixed the issue, I could even skip fine, but that's only happened once.
Please let me know what else you need to know to help troubleshoot this, it's annoying to say the least having to boot into windows just to watch a video file.
Thanks
