[SOLVED] Audio not working after pausing media

I haven't found anything about this on the troubleshooting guide for pulseaudio, nor anywhere else..

My problem is basically that after I pause my media thats playing at the moment and wait a few seconds, then resume, it stops giving any audio. It only starts working again when I change my playback device, then change it back. (this is what I also do when starting it initially)

I am using with vanilla arch linux with the Deepin desktop environment. (I've also tried with plasma kda, but afaik that doesn't change anything since they use the same system)

Re: [SOLVED] Audio not working after pausing media

does this happen only on one piece of software, or everywhere?

You are almost certainly running into the fallout from this change that was present for a short while: https://archlinux.org/news/undone-repla … replumber/

Hm yes, I guess I haven't looked through the news...
But when I try to do `sudo pacman -Rs wireplumber` it says that it breaks `pipewire-session-manager`
(I'm not an experienced linux user at all)

Did you see the literal pacman command in the green box on V1del's link?
