Ubuntu on Dell Vostro 5502 driver issues?

By Jessica Wood

I installed ubuntu 20.02 on my Dell Vostro 5502 and have a number of issues with it, most commonly the sound.

  • Sometimes it doesn't detect that headphones are present, the volume notification will show "speakers". No sound will come from either. Fixes itself on reboot

  • sometimes it doesn't detect that headphones are removed. fixed when rebooted

  • sometimes the mouse will freeze. This is solved when I close and re-open the laptop.

When I reinstalled windows these issues went away. Anything like drivers I could install that would fix the ubuntu issues?
