I am Deaf. I never bothered to setup audio (Arch Linux on Framework).

Edit: I would need someone to help me verify that sound works. Of course I could touch the chassis near the loudspeaker and play a 200 Hz sine wave on https://onlinetonegenerator.com/ but why? I don't hear so why? My children leave my laptop alone because they know that there's no sound.
