"after resume, the active output device is hdmi-stereo-0 (monitor)?" -> as I've noted before, for some reason after resume, it switches around the numbering which output is actually which physical connection. this is could be the root cause of the issue I'm seeing, but given all the other weirdness (dummy audio outputs being created, switching sometimes randomly to the motherboard spdif instead, etc) it's really hard to be sure.
I can't actually switch around the ports. I only have one HDMI output, so that has to go to the home theatre system. and if I plug my monitor into any output but the one it's connected to, the boot prompt to decrypt my drive is invisible and I can't navigate any other boot settings or issues either, as NV cards only display boot output on one display apparently. So I'm stuck with the ordering I have. That being said, if pulse isn't waiting for everything to wake up after resume before setting audio settings, no wonder I'm getting such broken, inconsistent behaviour. That sounds like incredibly broken, bad design, if it's the case, and should definitely be fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1888598 Title: pulseaudio has is buggy with hdmi audio and sleep/wake To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1888598/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
