Installed Ubuntu 23.10 on my Windows laptop (erased everything, natively running Ubuntu 23.10). My speakers only output audio at the boot chime for my laptop (so I know they work), lspci -vv displays the right sound cards, and settings detects my sound card. Clicking "Test Speaker" shows a volume bar going up then back down, but I don't hear anything. Wired USB headphones work, but the speakers don't work at all after booting. Reinstalled pipewire and pulseaudio many times, checked that everything relevant was unmuted in amixer. I restarted pipewire and wireplumber too.
$ sudo inxi -SMA shows:
Audio:
Device-1: Intel Comet Lake PCH cAVS driver: snd_hda_intel
Device-2: NVIDIA TU106 High Definition Audio driver: snd_hda_intel
API: ALSA v: k6.8.7-060807-generic status: kernel-api
Server-1: PulseAudio v: 16.1 status: active (root, process)
I've been troubleshooting for hours and found absolutely nothing that helped. I've even updated the firmware and everything and nothing is working.
$ sudo lspci -vv | grep -A7 -i "audio" shows:
