No sound through headphones in Chromium

F

frost1991

Sound works fine everywhere else, both internal speakers and headphones work every else.
However, on Chromium I only get sound through my internal speaker, regardless of what default device is set, even if I go into my mixer and MUTE the internal speaker, it will still play through the internal speaker.
Is there a way in Chromium to go into the back-end and force PCM device 1?
 
its all good i actually just tried out firefox-esr and fixed the issue which caused me to try out Chromium in the first place. I no longer have a need to get Chromium working. However for education purposes if anyone wants to answer this I will still test out the suggestions and report back. but its no longer a real need for me. you can actually just delete this
 
First discover the device name.

Here lets use my pcm5 as an example.

Then, launch mixertui:

Press F6 to get a device list, select the desired device and press enter:

With the device opened, press F8 to set as default:

Then press ESC to leave mixertui, and kill the pulseaudio daemon:

Some ports require restart (like chromium), but not all. That's it.
 
Thanks alot! worked perfectly.
also i tested it multiple times by switching between, and it seems like it works without the "killall pulseaudio" aswell.
