After running the latest update on 28. 11.2024, the audio playback device disappeared in the GNOME settings and audio playback is not possible. I tried booting with the LTS kernel, but that did not fix the issue. The update appears to include a new NVIDIA driver and the update to GNOME 46.
Going back to a snapshot before the update fixes it, but at some point in time I’d like to keep my Garuda up to date. If anybody knows what else I could try, I’d be grateful for advice.
