no sound on Debian 12

[Bruce Byfield]

Last week, I installed Debian 12. Since then I've had no sound. I've consulted
various pages on the Debian wiki, and found no solution, either with
pulseaudio or pipewire. Built-in speakers, and external features (including
bluetooth ones, which are definitely connected) don't work. Any suggestions?

Are you sure you have no sound at all, and not just have really really
low volume?

I have a similar problem where I need to raise the volume in alsamixer
between each boot (or switch between different users) - I have posted
about it here on debian-user, but no replies yet.

pulseaudio is provided by pipewire-pulse if you use pipewire. And you
should have wireplumber for your user. Check packages and systemd
services.
