Today, I picked up a soundbar to use with my TV/Monitor. It takes optical audio in (TOSLINK), which my TV has 'out', so I have HDMI to my TV/Monitor and optical out to the soundbar. It sounds much better, and I can live with that. Played some music with Clementine and it sounded decent...

No luck with Emmabuntus. I'm not saying it's a conspiracy, but it is conspicuous. It really makes me sad, that Linux has gone the way of MS. Going for the easy way out. You know MS would come out with an upgrade that would 'fix' something and in the process 'break' others. What pisses me...

Thank you Sir, I will try that and post again.

I had the same issue with sound on my Manjaro partition. I cleared that partition to try MX19, ans still got the same results. Also with EndeavourOS.

Mr. Wizard, you are correct. Are 'bits' also being removed? Anyway, I have attached the text of the kernel config file from /boot/config-5.10.0-9-amd64.

Ok, I think I'm done with this, for now. I wont close this thread, yet. Thank you to everyone that has posted in this thread. It shows the togetherness in the Linux community.

As you can see, the only sound card I can choose is the audio from my graphics card. Anyway, that is a moot point now. I've come to the conclusion that my problem is not a problem, it's as designed (configured). I should have given the following information at the beginning. The distro I'm...

The only sound output I can select is from my graphics cards HDMI, and yes, it is connected to my tv which doubles as my monitor. No, I won't be going back to using Windoze on this machiine.

My 'sound card' is my motherboard onboard sound device. Here is a link to the specs

In #5 post of this thread I attached the full output of lspci as lspci-output.txt Sorry, I was on my laptop when I posted this earlier. Here is what I get from lspci | grep Audio... 01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GF114 HDMI Audio Controller (rev a1)

No. That is the only choice.

Here is a screenshot of my audio control panel. This is what I get when I invoke 'pavucontrol'.

'pavucontrol' is installed. I was asking what distro is 'dos2unix' showing there. And I assume it is the OS sound preferences. I shouldn't have asked 'what application'. But I would like to know what distro. I don't have any problem changing which distro I use, as I have used many. I'm...

Which distro are you showing here and what is the application.

As requested, I did install the 4.9.0-279 kernel and I get the same result. Attachments are the output of 'inxi -Fxxxrza and 'lspci'...

I have been using Linux since 1988, when I separated from the Air Force. I had experience there with Unix and Zenix. I always loved Linux as an open source platform. And the philosophy that older hardware was supported, and the aspect of CHOICE. The point I was trying to make in my post was...

I have an older desktop, which I built back in 2008. It was state of the art, at the time. Gigabyte EP45 motherboard with SATA 2.0 and first generation PCI Express with onboard support for Dolby Home Theater audio. I installed an Intel Quad-core 2.4 GHtz processor (overclocked to 2.8 GHtz)...
