I temporary installed pulsaudio, and could switch to a HDMI output device. The config was present.
qasmixer shows no level-fader for the HDMI audio output.
Will switching to pipewire help? I'm not an expert; If that will help, I need some directions as to how to go about it.
The generic name for the current kernel is "linux-image-amd64"
$ sudo apt install linux-image-amd64should install daedalus' kernel 6.1.
Yes. I have installed kernel 6.1. Still, no luck.

You mentioned the kernel version: 5.10 is chimaera, daedalus has 6.1 and I would use this. Maye the old kernel is still booted as default for some reason?
Yes. The only kernel that is installed is this. Even though I have upgraded to Daedalus [changing the sources.list --> apt update --> apt upgrade --> apt dist-upgrade], somehow, the kernel version 6.1 hasn't been installed. I have installed it now and restarted. Still no luck.
Also, the Ubuntu which came pre-installed has everything working out of the box with kernel version 5.14 and pulseaudio. I am unable to understand how.
The following command shows all sound devices on my box:
$ cat /proc/asound/pcm 00-00: ALC1150 Analog : ALC1150 Analog : playback 1 : capture 1 00-01: ALC1150 Digital : ALC1150 Digital : playback 1 00-02: ALC1150 Alt Analog : ALC1150 Alt Analog : capture 1 01-03: HDMI 0 : HDMI 0 : playback 1 01-07: HDMI 1 : HDMI 1 : playback 1That's all I got ...
for the same command, I got as follows:
~$ cat /proc/asound/pcm
00-00: HDA Analog (*) : : playback 1 : capture 1
00-01: HDA Digital (*) : : playback 1 : capture 1
00-03: HDMI1 (*) : : playback 1
00-04: HDMI2 (*) : : playback 1
00-05: HDMI3 (*) : : playback 1
00-06: DMIC (*) : : capture 1
00-07: DMIC16kHz (*) : : capture 1Thanks a lot.

Yes and yes. Not many Devuan users use pulseaudio which is why a response might be slow. I have never had it installed. Please be patient.
Thanks a lot golinux. Yes, I'll be patient.

I'm sorry if I sound silly. Is this the right forum to post such queries? If yes, have I posted in the right category, “Desktop & multimedia”?

Hi, I have recently upgraded from Devuan Chimaera to Daedalus.
I use Devuan in my laptop Dell Latitude 3420.
My kernel info is as follows:
Linux devuan-Latitude 5.10.0-22-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.178-3 (2023-04-22) x86_64 GNU/Linux ~$ cat /proc/asound/pcm
00-00: HDA Analog (*) : : playback 1 : capture 1
00-01: HDA Digital (*) : : playback 1 : capture 1
00-03: HDMI1 (*) : : playback 1
00-04: HDMI2 (*) : : playback 1
00-05: HDMI3 (*) : : playback 1
00-06: DMIC (*) : : capture 1
00-07: DMIC16kHz (*) : : capture 1I generally connect to a external monitor using a HDMI cable. Both before and after the upgrade:
1. I don't get the sound output from my laptop via the HDMI cable.
2. Also, my microphone input isn't working. I need to plug in my earphones or use an external webcam + mic for video conferencing.
Pulse audio and pavucontrol is installed. But it doesn't show the HDMI option in the "Configuration" tab and the internal microphone in the "Input Devices" tab.
This was not the case in my Asus netbook. Everything worked fine with Devuan Chimaera in that laptop [that was a 2015 model; Dell Latitude is a 2022 model].
On a side note, my Dell came with Ubuntu pre-installed. And everything works flawlessly in that. That means there is no problem with the hardware. But in Devuan, something is missing or I haven't installed some important software.
Can someone help me out?
What other info will be required from my end?
Regards,
Thanks in advance.
