Comment 12 for bug 1888992

So this is a kernel driver issue instead of pulseaudio issue. It has sth to do with power management, and it is difficult to debug this kind of issue without a physical machine.

you could use a workaround like snd_hda_intel.power_save=0 or snd_hda_intel.power_save=,0 I don't whchi one is correct workaround, please test them and choose one of them.
