preforming this set of commands got kali to recognize the sound card but it will not output sound

sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio
sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoremove
 # Reboot. Open a terminal again and type (ignore any errors with the rm command):
 rm -r ~/.pulse ~/.asound* ~/.pulse-cookie ~/.config/pulse
sudo apt-get install pulseaudio

these are all of the avalible outputs registerd

running the commands here just resets my progress

HDAjackretask dose not detect anything but hdmi ports for sound

Seems a common error with that AMD chipset, but it can be fixed.
This is from the arch wiki, but it does give you the method;
