[SOLVED] Tick noise after play/pause of sound on jack - sndcard sleep?

Hi!

I have just upgraded my arch after January and it started to produce a single ticking noise every time I start or stop the music. The ticking noise seems to happen every time 10 seconds after I have stopped the music. Then if I resume the music I immediately here the noise except if the resume happens in less than 10 seconds after the music has stopped. I use the jack output and have not tested on hdmi or built-in laptop speakers (Dell Latitude E5540).

The noise sounds like as if it was a simple power off/power on noise. Has there been any powersaving function added to the kernel or whatever that produces a soundcard sleep if it is not in use? Can this feature be turned off?

Thanks,
Bálint

Aaaaa! I have searched the forums for audio+jack+noise and similar stuff, but could not find this. This has solved it, many-many thanks for saving me from going insane from this noise!
