Hello ! I recently switched to linux on my laptop and I’m currently on testing (trixie) and since I changed my audio set-up to have a headset for a call and a Bluetooth speaker for media etc my laptop’s speakers aren’t appearing anymore in pulse audio.

I must admit I’m a bit clueless on what to do to solve this issue, any help would be appreciated, I tried to find stuff online but nothing really seemed to match my issue as when the Bluetooth speaker is connected everything works fine. I’m trying to stick to the “don’t execute it if you don’t understand it” and well I don’t want to worsen the issue.

Thanks in advance for any help !

    Don’t give up too easily. I’m both proud and ashamed to say it took me a year to fix my audio issues…

    But for your config files (mostly) it’s cool to copy them as a backup. I rename mine to name-default.txt or name-4idiot.txt before making my changes so I can either refer back or just overwrite it completely if I mess up that much.

    Also make backups of the system if you need your files!!!

    I didn’t use Linux for work so I didn’t have anything I would miss when I reinstalled Linux after blowing it up beyond repair. Backups!
