    Try run the decibel linux pendrive you made earlier and preserved in a working audio state.

    And/or there are GUIs for JACK connectivity… ?

    This is psyop, they run windows up there, their outlook doesn’t work, and everyone kinda accepted that.

          While I don’t disagree, given there was a user making throwaway accounts solely to post controversial comics on !comicstrips@lemmy.world, this is a pretty specific joke that only Linux users would understand and appreciate. It of course is parodying the 2 instances of outlook issue they had on the rocket.

            Yeah, I don’t actually believe all of that jokes are literally psyop. It wasn’t entirely serious comment.
            It wasn’t entirely unserious either.

      I hope that’s like a personal laptop or something. I’d hate to think we shot people into space on something that’s running windows for a critical system.

        I have not worked on human rated launch vehicles, but I’ve been adjacent to them, saw what went into them, and a few close personal friends have worked it.

        Anything that can jeapordize the safety of the crew must go through a rigorous independent validation and verification process that takes years, software included. No shot a Microsoft product was even in consideration for those systems.

        Being in industry I find it crazy that so many people are freaked out by this. Astronauts have email, they have tasks and schedules and reports to make. Why would NASA reinvent the wheel on a task/schedule manager when the ground operators and astronauts are already used to using Outlook.

            I think they’re saying they’re not using Windows to operate Artemis II but the astronauts are probably used to using Microsoft products. So when it comes to simple logging and data entry they probably are using Windows. But these are their own computers and not used to run Artemis II. I may be wrong but that’s how I understood it.

              Yup, sometimes it’s too easy for me to just slip into work mode when talking about this kind of stuff and I don’t elaborate enough. Thanks for stepping in.

              Based on industry rumors I believe the Orion capsule control computers are running VxWorks (I’ve heard that maybe a few boxes are using RTEMS?) All of that source code would have been reviewed, audited, and tested to hell and back.

              The day-in-the-life stuff for the astronauts is entirely believable to be Windows. The risk of it failing is so low (medium probability, low impact), it’s what they’d be familiar with, and it’s part of daily life at NASA anyways. Linux is no better when it comes to safety critical components and the astronauts almost certainly wouldn’t want to be dealing with Gnome’s… uniqueness…

      I have it piping audio to three different devices at the same time. And believe it or not they’re all in sync… most of the time.

    My laptop is Mint and it’s never given me audio issues. My gaming rig is Nobara and the only audio issue I’ve had with it is that I forgot to switch the output to the TV.

    My Mint laptop audio stopped working for a couple months and then miraculously fixed itself this week. I made various attempts to fix it with no luck. It’s either a hardware issue or some obscure software issue.

    In the past, I had plugged in a HDMI cable to mirror the screen and couldn’t get the audio working again until I plugged it back into HDMI and switched it back to the internal speakers before unplugging HDMI. Before the audio broke this time, I had connected a USB microphone, so it’s possible that’s what did it.

      Happened to me on Mint as well. Never resolved it. Using Nobara and Fedora now and never had any audio issues. Seems to be something with how Mint handles audio as I see people mention this a lot.

      Pipewire is newer and emulates PulseAudio so that it can be used as a drop-in replacement. There’s literally a command called pipewire-pulse related to this.

      It makes me wonder if they really have both installed or are mistaking Pipewire’s emulation for an active PulseAudio installation, and so it’s just Pipewire that’s acting up.

      I’d say reboot, but being in space might be one of those times where that’s a non-starter. In which case, they’re going to have to get their hands dirty unpicking system hooks and trying to reattach them all again as and when Pipewire’s working again, assuming it doesn’t do that automatically.

      I never had a problem with either Pipewire or real PulseAudio back when that was current. I had motherboard sound physically pop, requiring the purchase of a separate sound card, but never a driver issue, so I can’t even imagine what might be going on.

    I feel this one. Used to daily drive Linux but due to a work requirement had to switch to Windows several years back. Windows has been getting shittier and shittier and I no longer need to use Windows for work and it only just gets shittier so I just switched to CachyOS and love it. Except the one and only issue I haven’t been able to fix is audio. I use a Bluetooth speaker on my computer and it cuts out randomly even using low bit rate audio streams. Tried switching pulseaudio to pipewire because the internet said I could increase the latency and that that would fix it but no dice.

      Hm? Removed pulse, installed pipewire-pulse, ran pipewire && wireplumber && pipewire-pulse as user and everything just works. Except that my cheap bt-inear sometimes cause a crash of bluetoothd (and that one should restart by itself but whatever) but that’s not pipewire’s fault.

        Hm? Removed pulse, installed pipewire-pulse, run pipewire && wireplumber && pipewire-pulse as user and got no available sound devices.Why? Because wireplumber’s bullshit crashed after forking to daemon somewhere in camera support code (but i do not have cameras!).
        With reference pipewire-media-session everything worked, but everybody forcing unstable and bloaty wireplumber, making old configuration not supported…
        Yes, maybe it’s not pipewire fault, just it’s modular architecture, but it makes me unhappy with it, so i still using jack. And i sure, there should be separate provider processes for camera and audio devices

      Some Mediatek chips are doing this, that is bt audio cutting out while WiFi doing things. Nothing fancy, 1080p video on YouTube will cause that.

    I actually had a sound issue the other day. Just no sound, how weird. It worked the day before. Checked wpactl, volumes etc, everything was fine and working. Restarted pipewire, still no sound.

    Turns out my external mixer lost power because the powet socket was slightly loose.

    Anyone have any idea how to troubleshoot my motherboard’s HD Audio device just not showing up at all in my hardware devices? I’ve made sure it’s enabled in UEFI settings but it just appears to not even be enumerated by the hardware scan.

    My previous mobo’s HD Audio also didn’t show up at first, but that one fixed itself by the time I came around to troubleshoot it (maybe an update?). Had to replace that mobo because of hardware damage, but I didn’t bother reinstalling the OS as I didn’t think it was necessary.

    Other then hoping the next round of updates resolves this, I’m out of ideas.
