Hi,
just a quick question. I also have a problem with audio. Is this problem related to "fwupd and audio"? When starting "VLC Media Player" I get error:
==============
Audio output failed:
The audio device "default" could not be used:
Connection refused.
==============
looking into "System Setting" | Sound and on Ouput and Input there are no devices specified and on "Sound Effects" there is only "default". I know this was working before seeing the devices here. The "default" from VLC error is probably the "default" from "Sound Effects".

I was searching the web and found this "USB audio device is not recognized after startup in 16.04" with URL: https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ fwupd/+ bug/1574079 and there is reference to "fwupd" and gnome-software.
What I am wondering maybe there is common cause for my problem "gnome-sofware" endless spinning (current bug report) and VLC/audio problem.
Looks like there were some fixed developed and are currently in "proposed" repository.
What do you think? Are this problems related?
P.S. I have also posted a question on Lenovo forum, to see if someone knows how to disable (if possible) figerprint device in BIOS: https:/ /forums. lenovo. com/t5/ ThinkPad- T61-and- prior-T- series/ How-to- disable- Figerprint- Reader- in-BIOS- or-in-Ubuntu- 16-04/td- p/3353318
