[Hasee NH50_70_55_58_ED,EDQ] pulseaudio: sometimes generate eternal white noise even reboot to Windows OS

[sgqy]

This problem seems begin from ubuntu 19.04.

Sometimes after login, headphone outputs white noise only, speaker does not work.

Nothing can play music with the noise.

The noise is impossible to stop except POWEROFF the PC.

Rebooting cannot stop it, the noise keeps even reboot into Windows OS.
In Windows OS, headphone still white noise, after unplugging headphone, the speaker does not work, too.

It works fine in Windows OS.
If I remove pulseaudio, only use ALSA. It also works stable.
(But now... firefox do not support ALSA, chromium-snap do not support ALSA too...)

It seems pulseaudio killed the sound card...

The problem appears randomly, I do not know how to reproduce. sorry...

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

You say the problem began around 19.04 and you are now running 20.04. Is that correct or a typo?

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Also, please try a newer kernel like:

https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.4.2/

[Ubuntu Kernel Bot (ubuntu-kernel-bot)]

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. While running an Ubuntu kernel (not a mainline or third-party kernel) please enter the following command in a terminal window:

apport-collect 1855584

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

It is not a typo. The problem goes half a year.
I remember it was fine in 18.04 and 18.10.

Also, before headphone becomes white noise, the speaker does a very very short time of "PA!" sound, like a bomb.

I will try the new kernel for days and reply. :)

> #19

I tried the two kernel. For now. And have another problem, maybe not important. 🤔

5.3.0-24-ubuntu (current)
5.4.2-mainline

On the beginning, speaker never works. Headphone have only two volume: 0 and 100 (unable to change volume).

I removed '/var/lib/alsa/*' and '~/.config/pulse/*'.

1st reboot: pulseaudio not work.
2nd/3rd reboot: pulseaudio started. The volume is init value.

1st VLC play: speaker and headphone works. When changing volume, the music lags and lags and repeats.
2nd/3rd VLC play: volume changing becomes smooth. Everything just works.

(The two kernels have the same behavior above.)

But... The noise problem is random, keep watching. 😎
