So I got a new CPU, an AMD, so I bought a new mother and so on and installef latst Zorin OS on my SDD, everything works fine but I hear distorted sound and they layer on top of each other, like, the same sound starts repeating and causing more distortion. I tried doing some stuff with Alsamixer but to no avail, whst to do?

    I wonder if the monitor for an output/sink is enabled as an input/source? Using a pulseaudio control panel like pavucontrol might show you more information? Most distributions provide pulseaudio/pipewire as a useful layer on top of ALSA, so pure-ALSA tools like alsamixer might not be showing you the whole picture

      Hello, sorry for taking so long to reply, life’s been pretty shit lately. I did follow everyone’s advice and tried another distro’s through a bootable live USB, since it worked I reinstalled Linux and it works now.
