Hi

It is working, I installed pulseaudio-module-gsettings.
And set Automatically switch all running streams when a new output becomes availible.

After 30 minutes my audio on headphones stopped working again.

Pease let me know what other tests I can run.

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Please try moving or deleting your: ~/.config/pulse
and then log out and in again.

Does audio device selection now work?

[Shaun (shaunt360)]

After I removed it works, but the problems comes back afetr a few hours.

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

OK, we can track this as a duplicate of bug 1866194 then, until proven otherwise.

[Shaun (shaunt360)]

Still seems to be the same.

I booted from a Manjaro USB Pendrive.
The sounds works then on all devices.

Back in Kubuntu 20.04 only normal speakers works and Bluetooth HEadsets.

Any audio via my Headphone Jack does not.

Any info I can get.
