Can't upgrade Ubuntu Studio from 24.10 to 25.04

I am currently running Ubuntu Studio 24.10, and cannot upgrade to version 25.10.

When I selected the “Upgrade Available” message icon in the panel, a window popped up stating “Upgrade failed with the following output:”, but there were no details listed. The rest of the window was completely empty.

I then attempted to upgrade by running the command: sudo do-release-upgrade. It gave the response: “Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading”. However, when I checked for updates using the Discover tool, none were listed. I then opened Synaptic and checked for both available updates, and broken packages, but again, none were listed.

Has anyone else run into this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I was able to resolve this.

Running the command: sudo apt list --upgradable showed that there was a newer version of libcanberra-pulse available than the one I had installed. I was able to upgrade it using Synaptic, then the “Upgrade Available” icon in the panel worked as per normal. I do not know why the upgrade for libcannberra-pulse wasn’t listed when I checked for updates using Discover and Synaptic, but all appears to be OK now.
