Maybe try .asoundrc ?

This is the way!

The fix doesn't "stick," though, after a reboot. I'm sure there's a way to make it the default, some file to edit, probably. If anyone can suggest such an edit, I would be very grateful!

Problem is with a big DE like that not to mention pipewire, you might not get proper output from that command, but it's what i'd do first.

Installation was fairly easy and I did a barebones install. I then installed the core Plasma package and standard desktop (not the big, full one). Everything seems to be fine except for audio. When clicking the mixer icon in the system try I only get "Connection to the Sound Service Lost" and nothing else. Pipewire is installed from what I can tell. I installed the ALSA utilities. Where do I even begin here?
