Title:
Intermittent HDMI sound, working with some videos/audios, failing with
others
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I'm using Lubuntu 17.10 on an ACER REVO RL80 connected to my TV
through HDMI.
The sound output is configured via sound settings (pavucontrol) to
HDMI ouput.
The sound is OK with some apps, and KO with some others.
For example in VLC, it works usually fine.
But on chromium/youtube, the sound is HS.
Actually, i think it's not really a per app problem, but it might depend more
on the type of audio being played. I thought the audio was working fine on
firefox youtube at first, but once I ran into a specific video with the audio
HS (and I checked this video had sound).
When the audio is HS on a video play, if I start a video that usually
doesn't have the problem, this video has the audio HS too.
And reversely, if the audio is OK on a video, and if I start a video
that usually have the problem, this time the video has its audio OK.
Knowing this, I made a small sript to "fix" the audio of a video witht
he problem.
I pause the video with the audio problem, I start a sound hat usually
doesn't have the problem, and I change the audio output back and forth
to HDMI output again. It usually fixes audio, and I jsute need to
resume the video with the problem BEFORE the good audio is over, and
it's OK.
This is my script
mpv /path/to/whitenoise_48k.wav &
pacmd set-card-profile 0 output:analog-stereo
pacmd set-card-profile 0 output:hdmi-stereo
And it's interesting to note that the same sound in 44k doesn't work
(whitenoise_44k.wav).
Weird stuff...
These are the outputs of some commands, can make more if you want.
