There's a popping sound coming from the amplified speaker. However, no sound came out because when I checked the settings, it still shows as headphones.

OK. Thank you for your patience.
I am looking for terminal commands that will do the equivalent of the fix you make with the GUI.

I need a bit more time and information to look for better terminal commands.
When you have the popping sound, can you run this command ?

Code:

pacmd list-sinks

Then use the GUI to switch from headphone to speakers
Then run the same command again.

Code:

pacmd list-sinks

and post the results back.

If you post terminal results as text rather than pictures, it makes it easier to translate.
Thank you.

Thank you
Boot the system.
Ensure your speakers are connected, powered up and volume set to normal level.

Open a terminal by pressing Ctrl, Alt and T
In the terminal enter these commands followed by return.

Code:

pacmd set-card-profile 0 output:analog-stereo+input:analog-stereo

Code:

pacmd set-sink-port 0 analog-output-lineout

Then without trying the GUI workaround, check to see if the system audio works.
Let us know the result.

I sent this command and the negative response to MetaAI, and it gave me this answer, and when I executed the first command, it changed.

The output shows that the sound device is currently set to use the "Headphones" port. To switch to the "Line Out" port, try this command:

pacmd set-sink-port 1 analog-output-lineout

If that doesn't work, you can also try:

pactl set-sink-port 1 analog-output-lineout

[di0lh0]

Thank you for your help, which led me to the code to initialize the sound.
I created a .sh file, put the commands in it, gave it permissions, and placed it in the launcher.

[stevef]

You're welcome. The intention was to put the 'fix' commands into a pulseaudio configuration file, but a launcher does the same. It is a workaround - we still don't understand why the problem happens on your system.
Thank you for your cooperation and patience.

I was using Linux Antix and had the same problem.

I also had a problem with the LED light settings; they remained on at maximum brightness even using the f.lux application. I tried Linux Lite and was able to control the LED lights using f.lux.

Although Linux Antix uses much less memory and allows me to open more programs, that backlight was driving me crazy.

I'll post this solution on my X and on my Telegram channel.
