"pactl list" shows that all ports of the internal sound card source are unavailable, so PulseAudio knows that the internal sound card is unusable, but still does the stupid decision. I believe this is caused by module-device-manager, which KDE uses to manage the device priorities. It doesn't currently understand ports at all, which means that it doesn't check whether the currently active port of a source is unavailable before deciding to use the source. Thanks for the report, I hope this will get fixed. I can't promise any timeline for that, however.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
