I am fairly new to Ubuntu and Linux I am having problems getting my sound to work, when I play a YouTube video, I don't get any audio from the rear ports either from my speakers or headphones, however I can hear it through my headphones when plugged into the front audio socket

Can someone please help me, so I can completely ditch Windows Thanks Ian

Check your wiring, to make sure everything is in order.

  1. Work with alsmixer https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/Alsamixer, if the sound is muted on alsamixer press f6 choose the sound card press f5 and go to the channel you want press m to add or remove the muting.
  2. there are 2 gui apps that are available:
  3. pavucontrol which is a simpler app https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/focal/man1/pavucontrol.1.html install: sudo apt install pavucontrol
  4. If you are on Ubuntu 24.04 easyeffects. Install: sudo apt install easyeffects They are both good but usually you have to first use alsamixer first to get everything in order. There is a lot of pages on internet which describes how to install I have not used any flatpak packages and so far did not have any need to.
