Hey,

After an update just now (was about 20 days since the previous update) the speaker volume has been drastically reduced on my laptop. Although I do not know they make sense when running pipewire-pulse, I tried the steps described in https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture/Troubleshooting, except the softvol preamp thing.

I did not find any obviously sound related packages in this last update. My kernel did update to 6.5.5 (from 6.5.3).

Anyone else experiencing volume issues? Or any hints maybe on where or what to look for?

No issues on my end, but you might want to use something like alsamixer to check whether your hardware volume is normal or not.

Another update with some sound specific stuff and a firmware update fixed it! Not sure which one triggered the fix.
