Dear community,
I have finally pulled the trigger and installed QubesOS (Latest version/Download) on my DELL Vostro 7590 Laptop.
Apart from Qubes being amazing for what I think an OS should be, I do have some sound issues:
The sound just seems off and it sometimes / randomly starts to sound like an old ATARI, e.g. when playing a video or a Telegram Notification comes up. This then persists, and only goes away when I open the PulseAudio Volume Control from the System Settings. It then gets better but still sounds crackling when there is talking, or when a violin is playing in a video, there is just this off sound to it.
According to DELLs own specification, it is a Realtek ALC3254 controller. Pulse says it’s a Cannon Lake PCH cAVS HDMI.
Aside from this install being my daily driver, I am planning on using QubesOS for video creation purposes. So having both graphics and sound working would be a good thing.
Please may I ask for help and advise how to improve the sound? Is it a settings thing? Is it a compatibility issue?
I am new to Qubes so please excuse my potentially silly questions.
