 |

Hi !
I wrote about this on the KDE forum, but unfortunately I have not received an answer there yet.
I set up sound on my HP laptop with AMD Ruzen 5500U with Renoir Graphics, the background to this story is shown here https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1152956.html (the last two posts are interesting)
I also tested the sound with alsa alsamixer/speaker-test and all work good, but in the list of audio devices in KDE settings I see the line
| Quote: | Inactive cards
Renoir Radeon High Definition Audio Controller |
Screenshot is here available https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZgwXXbJmc9Jo58JxJ5v95PQlTLCDU1XN/view?usp=sharing (unfortunately I could not find a suitable service to post the image)
I would be grateful for information about what this means - the card drivers are inactive and I use the standard default drivers?
I successfull rebuilt the kernel with AMDGPU support and Renoir sound card ind it success boot without errors. I can give further output of aplay -l and aplay -L if it will neccessary
Thanks |

Full HDMI support includes audio over HDMI and this is the audio over HDMI. Whether your monitor supports audio or you're using the HDMI port is a different question.
I think DisplayPort also supports audio over the digital link and would likewise show up.
