Audio not working after reinstalling pulseaudio

Briefly describe your issue below: I recently dual booted Parrot with Windows 10 and everything worked fine except for the microphone. To fix that, I tried this: rm -r ~/.config/pulse rm -r ~/.pulse sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio pavucontrol sudo apt-get install pulseaudio pavucontrol When I restarted my machine, none of the audio buttons worked (volume up/down and microphone mute). I even tried firecfg --fix-sound. What version of Parrot are you running? (include version (e.g. 4.6), edition(e.g. Home//KDE/OVA, etc.), and architecture (currently we only support amd64) Linux parrot 5.2.0-2parrot1-amd64 #1 SMP Parrot 5.2.7-2parrot1 (2019-08-12) x86_64 GNU/Linux KDE version What method did you use to install Parrot? (Debian Standard / Debian GTK / parrot-experimental) Debian Standard Configured to multiboot with other systems? (yes / no) Yes (with Windows 10) If there are any similar issues or solutions, link to them below: None I can find so far. If there are any error messages or relevant logs, post them below: This is from /var/lod/syslog Aug 21 15:58:55 parrot systemd[1039]: pulseaudio.socket: Succeeded. Aug 21 16:02:07 parrot pulseaudio[1412]: E: [pulseaudio] module.c: Module “module-device-manager” should be loaded once at most. Refusing to load. dmesg says nothing about pulseaudio [Update / Solution] I ended up fixing this issue so here’s an update in case it helps someone. I checked /var/log/apt/history.log and it turns out sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio actually removed the following: gqrx plasma-pa pulseaudio pulseaudio-module-bluetooth apt-get purge isn’t even supposed to remove dependencies so I have no idea as to why this happened. I reinstalled all the packages and everything worked perfectly. Hope this helps!

If there are any error messages or relevant logs, post them below:
None other than the sound not working. I have uninstalled pulseaudio then reinstalled it and the sound worked until I rebooted it. Even then though the hardware switches wouldn’t work to change the volume. I have check alsamixer and it shows that my volume is at around 60%. I have tried turning it up from there and it doesn’t change anything.

Are you running software like Audacity?
