Tomas,

I assumed there should be no problem and that's why I don't understand why
I'm seeing issues here. Firefox won't connect to meet.jut.si
(mozilla-firefox-68.9.0esr). Chromium and Google Chrome do.

Oh, so it won't work with AMD processors?

Excuse me. There is a single, green outlined jack on both the front and rear
panels. What is wrong with that jack?

I used the headset with ring central so the pavucontrol settings and the
green-outlined jack on the front panel worked just fine.

Feh. I haven't see this in years.
