| Fedora 42, no audio output (as root) ( 2025-09-28 ) + ( 866 ) | | https://www.reddit.com/r/Fedora/comments/1k5stj7/fedora_42_no_audio_output_as_root/ | Fedora 42, no audio output (as root)
I was usually able to get audio with the previous releases, but this time nothing.
Yet everything seems working :-(
I edited the files /usr/lib/systemd/user/pipewire-pulse.socket, /usr/lib/systemd/user/pipewire.socket, /usr/lib/systemd/user/pipewire-pulse.service, /usr/lib/systemd/user/pipewire.service and commented out ConditionUser=!root
systemctl --user status pipe* wire* shows:

just in case it was still a 'root' issue I checked with my normal user, but it shows the same problem
Also tried:
6a) Deleting everything in ~/.local/state/wireplumber, rebooting
6b) plug in a HDMI cable
6c) install pavucontrol
any idea?
