Microphone no longer works on Firefox, how to revert settings of pavucontrol?












1















I messed up on pavucontrol and now my microphone doesn't work on Firefox (although it works with another non-root user account) so how can I revert settings back to their original state for what concerns pavucontrol?



Thank you very much in advance for any help on this.

    If you're sure the reason for the problem is only because you've messed the settings, try rm ~/.config/pulse or rename it to another file. It will force pavucontrol to generate a new user-file.
