People still think it is 15 years ago that it took a week of tinkering to figure out how to get sound from your sound card.

I just don't care enough to become a linux missionary/priest though and try to get people to switch. I can't make the horse drink the water.

I installed Pop!_OS 21.04 last week and use a USB mic/headphones. After some googling I had to apply this fix to turn off the power saving subsystem which was turning the card on and off. This is on a desktop computer.
