Hi there. After installing your scripts on Fedora-Silveblue 40 I can't get my headphones to produce audio, and Gnome settings won't recognize them. I'm plugged into the microphone port. Would you know how to fix this?

Thank you.

Headphones plugged into a microphone port would never work. Microphone is line-in, as in it would only send data rather than receive data. Headphones should be plugged into a line-out port - usually labelled the headphone port.

Apologies - upon re-reading I suspect you mean your headset rather than headphones.

The script auto-mutes the microphone on login using an autostart file saved here: /etc/xdg/autostart/solidcore-mute-mic.desktop. It basically runs amixer set Capture nocap when you login. Simply run amixer set Capture cap in the terminal and it should work again. Deleting the file should stop it from occurring in future...
