Nope. At least not when I bought mine only a couple of months ago, I guess right when they blocked the unlocking tool from being used. Super annoying.

This is exactly why I sent my Zenphone 9 back. Shame because it was such a good little phone and one of the few flagships with a headphone jack.

I swear I tried all of that and uninstalled the existing firmware, and pulled the newer files. I might give it another go, but I saw on a thread that this is a specific issue with Galaxy Book devices. Someone had a detailed step-by-step guide to get the audio working; I tried it, but it didn't.

Yeah, it's such a small percentage of users affected too. I have other laptops that run various distros of Linux without issues, but my Galaxy Book can't get any audio unless I plug in speakers or headphones.

Thank you for the advice.

Perhaps a shot in the dark, but does anyone know if this update does anything to change the sound issues on Samsung laptops? For example, I have a GalaxyBook3 Pro 360, and it doesn't matter what distro I use; I cannot get audio working. I spent 8 hours one day just going through forums and trying various fixes but could never get anything to work.

There's an app I use called "Snip'd" which uses AI to detect different chapter segments of your podcasts. It doesn't automatically skip anything for you but it does a pretty good job of finding and pointing out where the ads are and breaking the entire episode up into different chapters.

I've been bouncing back and forth between Connect and Summit.

Connect has more features though that I want and is currently in my number 1 spot. I tried all the others too so if I had to choose a #3, it would be WefWef/Voyager.

Everyone mentions "Seal" and while it is good, "DVD" is much better IMO. I've never encountered a site or link that DVD couldn't find and download the video.
