[SOLVED] Pipewire pulse sink suspended when resume from sleep

Installed `pipewire 0.3.23` recently (using pulseaudio before this). And found some issue after I resume my laptop from sleep (suspend to RAM).

After resume from sleep, audio and video cannot be played. Checked the sink (`pactl list sinks`), found out it is suspended.

Sink #43
        State: SUSPENDED
        Name: alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo
        Description: Built-in Audio Analog Stereo
        Driver: PipeWire
        Sample Specification: s32le 2ch 48000Hz
        Channel Map: front-left,front-right
        Owner Module: 4294967295
        Mute: no

`pactl info` works fine

Library Protocol Version: 34
Server Protocol Version: 34
Is Local: yes
Client Index: 53
Tile Size: 65472
User Name: user
Host Name: mycomputer
Server Name: PulseAudio (on PipeWire 0.3.23)
Server Version: 14.0.0
Default Sample Specification: float32le 2ch 48000Hz
Default Channel Map: front-left,front-right
Default Sink: alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo
Default Source: alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo
Cookie: 1ac7:4d01

I tried

1. `systemctl --user restart pipewire-pulse.service`, it doesn't solve the problem.

2. Remove the files in `~/.config/pipewire-media-session/` as wiki, doesn't solve the problem as well.

The only solution now I am using is to reboot the machine.

Does anyone have solution?

P/S: Not able to produce the issue recently (2021-03-11). Wait for more days for observation.

Re: [SOLVED] Pipewire pulse sink suspended when resume from sleep

And you are actually attempting to play to it still? What's your

sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*
pactl list sink-inputs

during this.

Re: [SOLVED] Pipewire pulse sink suspended when resume from sleep

These are what I get,

Run `sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*`

                     USER    PID ACCESS COMMAND
/dev/snd/controlC0:  user    815 F.... pipewire-media-
/dev/snd/controlC1:  user    815 F.... pipewire-media-
/dev/snd/seq:        user    814 F.... pipewire

If not playing any audio or video, `pactl list sink-inputs` produces nothing.

While trying to play audio, the audio is stuck at time 00:00:00, and run `pactl list sink-inputs`

I tried to kill process 815 and 814 (from fuser command), then the audio can be played.

Did you find any solution to this? I'm also facing similar issue.

Re: [SOLVED] Pipewire pulse sink suspended when resume from sleep

@neerkoli , I don't face the issue anymore for a long time. But my previous solution was to kill the processes, whenever the playback doesn't work. Refer to my previous post https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 6#p1961596

Re: [SOLVED] Pipewire pulse sink suspended when resume from sleep

Likely related to this. This bug is fixed in kernel 5.16.11 which will arrive on Arch within a couple of days.
