For the speaker test sounds we reply on the freedesktop sound theme. For subwoofer that would be the "audio-channel-subwoofer" sound. That seems to be missing on my system (checked with `ls /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo`). When the sound isn't available we fall back to "audio-test-signal", which is likely the indistinct sound you are hearing. Ultimatley this seems to be an oversight in the freedesktop sound theme. I filed https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-sound-theme/-/issues/7 for this. Let's see if this can be resolved there before we think about working around this Looking at the speaker-test code it appears that it is using the Rear Center sound for the subwoofer: https://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-utils.git;a=blob;f=speaker-test/speaker-test.c#l734 A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-pa/-/merge_requests/29 Git commit bc79ca3289903cb641fd29a0b9cf8da17427421a by Nicolas Fella. Committed on 10/11/2020 at 13:59. Pushed by nicolasfella into branch 'master'. [kcm] Use rear-center sound for subwoofer test There is no audio-channel-subwoofer sound in the freedesktop theme. Use rear-center instead like speaker-test from alsa-utils does M +2 -1 src/kcm/package/contents/ui/Advanced.qml https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-pa/commit/bc79ca3289903cb641fd29a0b9cf8da17427421a If you re-open a bug, please explain why.
