Hi Folks,
my installed Fedora 36 on a vmware-guest system keeps showing “Dummy Output” as the audio device after playing around with the pipewire settings.
In the meantime, I have deleted the configuration files that I know of and rebooted the computer, but no change.
rm -r ~/.config/pulse/*
rm -r ~/.local/state/wireplumber/*
available device:
[martin@fc36 ~]$ aplay -l

normally this should look correct:
pactl get-default-sink
alsa_output.pci-0000_02_02.0.analog-stereo
pactl list short sinks
44 alsa_output.pci-0000_02_02.0.analog-stereo PipeWire s16le 2ch 44100Hz SUSPENDED
setting the default sink does not work.
[martin@fc36 ~]$ pactl set-default-sink alsa_output.pci-0000_02_02.0.analog-stereo
Failure: No such entity
how can I restore the normal state ?
