It’s happening since the day I installed Garuda Linux Dr460nized Gaming edition and it’s becoming really annoying.
The exact issue is as follows:
I use my headphones all the time and no other audio device is connected. And while using the computer, it just randomly decides to switch the audio output from “Line Out” to “Headphones(unplugged)” and the audio output just totally cuts off. It gets really annoying when I’m using anything in fullscreen as I have to get out of fullscreen and change the audio output back to Line out and then continue it. Occasionally, it reverts back to Line Out from Headphones(unplugged) after some seconds (sometimes minutes) which lessens my anger.
I cannot re-install Garuda as I have important files here which are very large in size and also my games which I would avoid re-installing due to their massive size (GTA V).
I searched on the internet and to my luck I did not find anything that could fix this issue.
Any help is appreciated.
Here’s the inxi :–
