I don't have any issues with USB sound devices.
Tested with:
Pulseaudio is enabled by Pantheon desktop using hardware.pulseaudio.enable = mkDefault true;
. Maybe test with the default package?
"x86_64-linux"
Linux 5.4.41, NixOS, 20.03.1950.48723f48ab9 (Markhor)
yes
yes
nix-env (Nix) 2.3.4
"home-manager-20.03, nixos-20.03.1950.48723f48ab9, nixos-hardware, nixos-unstable-20.09pre226148.0f5ce2fac0c"
/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixos
The default package neither worked for me. I tried putting the full package to see whether it would work or not, which turned out not to be the case, unfortunately.
I have been able to reproduce this on a clean NixOS 20.03 install with only KDE and the sound enabled, on my other computer. I also wanted to try directly in the graphical installer, just to see if it works, but haven't done it at the moment.
I don't think the issue comes from the adapter, as it correctly works elsewhere...
EDIT: I also included my /etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix
in the issue just in case.
Can you inspect the kernel logs to see if there's anything interesting? journalctl -k
As far as I can see, everything seems ok regarding sound devices.

I also had time to test on a USB installer for NixOS 19.03. I can confirm that it works. I haven't yet tested on an installer for NixOS 20.03. UPDATE: Also tested on a USB installer for NixOS 20.03 (the graphical one), and it also works. I'll try to reinstall a basic NixOS 20.03 to see if it still works or not, and try to gather more details about my issue.
Well, since it works in other distros, I would try comparing the full system log in NixOS and a working distro.
Wait until the system is loaded fully, then start logging, plug in the device and play a sound.
Compare these logs. Also compare versions of everything touching audio.
Wout.

I ended up doing a clean install of two NixOS. One for my main computer, and one for my other computer.
I tried creating new users (instead of the basic mesabloo
one I always create) and the audio worked correctly through the USB adapter on the first installation (the other computer).
The second installation is done (need to reinstall my entire working environment) and the audio also seems to work flawlessly through the USB adapter.
I'm wondering whether I had some file in my home folder that caused pulseaudio to not work correctly or something, but I absolutely have no clue at this point. I'll reinstall my working environment, switch back to my old account name (praying for it not to be cursed) and see if it still works. If yes, I will close this issue as the problem is not happening anymore. However I don't know why it was happening in the first place.
Everything finished downloading. I had a little bit of trouble with one thing, but it is kinda solved, and unrelated to this issue. On the other hand, my USB adapter correctly picks the audio now. I have yet to test my microphone but I believe it will work just as good.
I still have no clue on what may have caused this issue. Probably some leftover files from my old Linux installations. But I can't seem to understand how those might have influenced the new system that much (I am even more perplex as I tried to move only the config that wasn't working and it made the same problem on another problem). Every is a bit weird, but in the end it works. As said earlier this day, I'm closing this issue because the problem is solved.
Thanks everyone for your time. :smile:
Describe the bug Running NixOS 20.03, I haven't been able to make my USB sound card adapter work. Everything seems to be correctly recognized in
pavucontrol
, but the sound played from the USB adapter is very very slow. It also seems to affect video playback speed onbrave
.To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
to your
/etc/nixos/configuration.nix
Expected behavior The sound outputted has a normal speed and is audible.
Screenshots Working as expected when the jack is selected in
pavucontrol
: https://imgur.com/a/h80pTyC Not working as expected when the USB adapter is selected inpavucontrol
: https://imgur.com/a/Pst09BCAdditional context On an old NixOS installation (I believe was NixOS 19.03, linux kernel 4.19), the USB sound card adapter worked as expected. I haven't been able to pinpoint exactly when (what version) it stopped working. The adapter has no problem, as it is working on Windows, on my phone, and on my old Manjaro setup (which I overwrote for NixOS) running the 5.4 linux kernel with pulseaudio. I believe this is a NixOS-only problem related to the
pulseaudio
package. Downgrading the linux kernel to 4.19 (this was the kernel of my old NixOS installation) does not help. Reintroducing the working configuration with channel updates (19.03 -> 20.03) make the bug appear on the previously working configuration. There are no errors regardingpulseaudio
injournalctl

/etc/nixos/configuration.nix
cleaned (without any comments), if it can be of any help. I also include my/etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix
