[SOLVED] No Sound in USB headset?? Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon

stardustdk · 11-06-2018, 09:50 AM

Hey all.

I have a Intel NUC, that is now installed with Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon.
With 18.3 Cinnamon no sound problems of any kind.
Now I can find my Sennheiser USB headset with lsusb, but not in the sound settings at all.
There is also no sound in the headset, but the mic works fine.
Tried som mint/*buntu ideas i found, nothing worked with sound?!
Any ideas?

Regards

John

Sounds like what one tech I used to know called an "FM" problem. "FM," loosely translated, stands for "funny magic."

When he got called to a site and the problem mysteriously went away, if the customer asked, "What was it, he would reply, "Oh, it was an FM problem." He would then escape before the customer could ask, "What's an FM problem?"

"Funny magic" - I agree fully

But thanks for reaching out to me
