Does TDE have a preference for either alsa or pulseaudio? The last 12.2 system I installed TDE on has no sound currently. It has installed currently alsa, alsa-oss, alsa-plugins & alsa-utils, but no pulsau*.
Hello, TDE has no native support for Pulseaudio. It can use Alsa directly, or Pulseaudio with Alsa redirection. If you have no pulseausio at all, it should work with Alsa out of the box.
Try opening the TDE Control Center, go to the "Sound System" section, and look for Arts-related options there.
So much has happened since I wrote my OP that I'm not sure if I did anything else to fix this besides:
I was trying to use a mono pin jack cable instead of stereo. With a stereo cable it's working just fine, in spite of dmesg showing "No response from codec" and "Codec #1 probe error; disabling it". On a different PC I took the mono cable off of, it was working, but only on one speaker. Why on this one it wouldn't work at all I have no idea.
