After upgrading to 1.1.6 Aaslakkajärvi I noticed that my phone doesn't play sound anymore. I double checked that I enabled sounds via top pulley menu and even tried the "Loudspeaker playback test" in CSD, but nothing.

Edit: headphone jack worked, but speaker didn't. Filtered out to be HW issue, speaker element wasn't in place or sth.

Does headphone-jack still work? What about BT speakers?

Headphone jack works.

Related or not, there's this error line in the journal: alien.sh[823] binderpulse_hw: Fail to get Alien audio instance! Will try again later

Perhaps a hardware or dust issue with the 3.5mm connector and its autoswitch?

Is switching from headphone jack to speaker made completely in hardware?

@hzb To filter out one possible hw issue, try a decent squeezing of the phone from around the loudspeaker (pushing from surface and bottom quite hard) while playing something
