No sound with pipewire

Issues & Assistance
1

Hi people,

I’m new in the linux world and I’m very glad using Garuda Dr460nized.
The problem is that I have no sound. Sometimes, then restart a lot of times the pipewire services, sound start to works, but when I restart or shut down the pc, sound doesn’t work.

systemctl restart --user pipewire pipewire-pulse pipewire.socket

I try using this command but I have no success.

My sound is Realtek ALC887 and by default pipewire comes installed.

Another issue is when I turn on my pc and then both displays (the primary uses display port and second is vga) my primary display keeps in black, only works the second display. Then when I logged in, primary display start to works.
My video card is Ati RX 580

Thank you.

This is most likely a setting in the “BIOS” (UEFI actually).
On mine I can choose between external only or duplicating the main to the secondary.
Then the display manager takes over and actually uses two monitors.

I don’t know about the audio problem though.

Pipewire had an update yesterday, so there is most likely an update for you if you run garuda-update .
Try that to see if the issue persists with the new version.
