   I have no idea if this is related or not, but I sometimes have problems with    
   the sound disappearing, and IIRC this started with the Bookworm upgrade a    
   couple of yrs back.  It isn't just raspbian but happens in the parent OS also.   
      
   Rebooting, and making sure the HDMI monitor is plugged in and turned on,    
   usually fixes it -- even if the monitor was on the first time!   
      
   IMHO rasp/debian has developed some issue where it has trouble sensing the    
   state of the HDMI monitor and, if it gets it wrong it does weird things.    
      
   If your monitor isn't HDMI then it could be a completely different issue but I   
   thought I would mention it just in case it was helpful.
