      SOLUTION: The audio immediately came back with the terminal command: alsactl restore

      =======================================

      So when I opened a SM Tube video in MPV Player (? – can’t check SM Tube appears to be broken) I pressed the volume icon in the taskbar which muted the sound, but when I clicked it again about half a sec later (to unmute it) the audio was gone & wouldn’t come back (even after a variety of toggles & reboots).

      After fiddling with pulseaudio -k & pulseaudio -D + restarting the problem was still there & somehow must have saved into my settings (alsa?).

      Apparently this is a bug where ‘automute’ may have been enabled.
