Audio

You need to uninstall old controller (in case you have it installed)

sudo pacman -Rdd pulseaudio

Install important libraries to control audio

NOTE: if you have any conflict with jack2, uninstall it we will replace it with pipewire-jack

sudo pacman -S pipewire pipewire-alsa pipewire-jack pipewire-media-session pipewire-pulse

Install the GUI managers:

NOTE: you need the configure the GUI first, follow this guide

  • carla - MIDI controller, you can build the audio MIDI flow and manage some plugins
  • pavucontrol - Audio controller - you can set the default device, change volumes in each device and application with a source audio
sudo pacman -S carla pavucontrol

Internal audio does not work in Laptop

In my personal case, the audio controller was not recognicing my internal audio card (which manage the internal speakers and internal mic), I'm guessing you might have the same problem if you are using an intel audio card.

Get audio card name - lspci -v | grep -i "audio"

I found the solution here

Edit grub config and add the following within the quotation after GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT

# file: /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="snd_intel_dspcfg.dsp_driver=1"

Update grub config

sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Reboot

-- if you use opera, please install it = sudo pacman -S opera-ffmpeg-codecs
