| Problem: on reboot, unable to play audio (or videos with audio!) without first re-plugging audio jack or toggling output control | |
| Cause: all audio sinks are in state 'SUSPENDED' on boot | |
| Confirm by running 'pactl list short sinks | grep -i susp' | |
| Workaround: | |
| edit /etc/pulse/default.pa | |
| comment out 'load-module module-suspend-on-idle' | |
| reboot | |
| re-run 'pactl list short sinks' and confirm the sinks that were previously 'SUSPENDED' are now 'IDLE' | |
| check if audio works without replugging device or toggling output | |
| If yes, you are done. | |
| Platform: | |
| Arch | |
| Linux 5.18.1-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon, 30 May 2022 17:53:11 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux | |
