internal speaker audio selection not available from desktop OS #130

Right clicking the volume icon only shows HDMI output as option. wm8960-soundcard appears in alsamixer as a soundcard but not in "Device Profiles". Testing Pi4 v0.15.0

I have been investigating this issue. I am seeing different behaviors during different boots up. On one of my devices I can see both wm8960-soundcard and HDMI active and I can play audio with Youtube and aplay through the device speakers. On another device, I can see HDMI with wm8960-soundcard DISABLED BUT aplay -l is finding the soundcard and I can still play with aplay test.wav command.

I believe there is some conflict happening between pipewire-pulse and pulseaudio perhaps.

It would be great if you can post the output of the following commands (mainly what versions installed)

apt show pulseaudio pulseaudio-* pipewire-pulse apt show wireplumber wpctl status pactl status aplay -l pw-cli ls Node

To me, this does not seem related to any of the Ubo app logic since I killed the ubo-app.service during my testing. It does not seem to be specifically related to wm8960-soundcard or the way it is loaded. It seems like some pipewire-pulse and alsa setup issue.

I have run into a case where I don't see HDMI as sound option on Desktop but wpctl command shows HDMI as a sink device....
