No sound on ALC889 after upgrade to 21.10

[Emmanuel DA MOTA]

Sound played well on 21.04

After upgrade to 21.10, there's no sound using this card

Sound play well on other cards like my Sennheiser headset

The following command is a good workaround but does not persist across reboots

$ alsactl init
alsa-lib parser.c:260:(error_node) UCM is not supported for this HDA model (HDA Intel PCH at 0xfbff4000 irq 29)

thanks to pavucontrol, now i can get sound to my external speakers across reboots

In the sound section in the gnome settings panel, the dropdown list displays 2 outputs:
Headphones
Line out

the output device was set to Headphones because it was the setting in 21.04 and it worked.

Unfortunately, it's not possible to mute/umute something from this panel

I installed pavucontrol to unmute the Line out and set as the default output.

hope this help
