Reading through the comments in the Bugzilla report linked from that AskUbuntu question, I can see the bug in question was resolved in kernel `5.3.0-46`, whereas my machine already has `5.3.0-59`. Please could someone help me work out what I'm missing here? Just a quick note: I did also use the 'NVidia X Server' control panel to switch my primary graphics over from the GTX card to the Intel Integrated Graphics, in the hopes that this would stop the laptop from trying to use the HDMI audio output, but that doesn't seem to have made any difference.

Built-in laptop speakers - which show in the list of audio devices (no 'Dummy' sound issues here), but simply refuse to play any sound.

JBL E500BT - which disconnects immediately after pairing with my laptop.

Corsair Vengeance V1500 USB - which don't show up as anything, but I've never managed to get these working in any Linux distro anyway.

I have the following audio devices on hand to work with: However, I would like to be able to listen to music from my laptop while I code.

Lol.įortunately, this is not a deal breaker for me, as all my web and mobile development stuff now happens in Linux, with Windows 10 being kept essentially only for gaming. It's lightning fast, silky smooth, it doesn't have 'Settings' entries that don't work (like we've all found in other distros), everything here 'Just Works'. I've been running Zorin OS on my MSI GP73 Leopard 8RE laptop for a few weeks now, absolutely loving it so far.
