Possible fix for white noise in PipeWire, SDDM B450m TUF

Hello community, this is my first post and I not speak english hehe.

I was experiencing a problem on my Arch Linux system with PipeWire and SDDM. Every time I logged in, I heard a persistent white noise that only went away when I played an audio file or started pavucontrol. This problem occurred until I took some action to activate the sound. I use generic analog sound on speakers.

My system configuration:

Operating system: Arch Linux
Login Manager: SDDM
Window manager: Qtile
PipeWire: 1.2.6
Motherboard: B450M TUF gaming.


My solution is disable kernel level energy saving. (ALSA)


1st. Edit the audio module parameters.

Open or create the configuration file for ALSA

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/audio_power_save.conf  (or any editor, nano, micro, etc)


2nd. Add this line:

options snd_hda_intel power_save=0

This disables the power saving feature of the snd_hda_intel module. its common.


3rd. Reload the module or reboot the system.

To reload the module or reboot:

sudo rmmod snd_hda_intel && sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel

Offline
