I've been using Ubuntu 20.04 on a dual boon computer for a few months, but there's a thing that annoys me since the first day.

I have two jack ports on my PC, in one of which there are my headphones and the other one my speakers.

While they both work on Windows, whenever I use Ubuntu the latter one does not work anymore. It gets detected, but it acts as if it was mute.

If I try to switch the output, the speaker starts working, so the problem is related to the jack port and not the speaker itself.

I've tried every single suggestion of this topic, this one and a lot more, but nothing changed.

Inside pavucontrol I can find both the Ports and they are both marked as plugged in.

They are located under Family 17h (Models 10h-1fh) HD Audio COntroller Analog Stereo, where I can choose between the two ports.

Any suggestions apart from a factory reset? I'm getting crazy.

Thank you in advance for your time!

I solved by opening alsamixer from the terminal and switching the Channel setting from 2ch to 6ch. It suddenly started working with no need to restart my pc.
