Hi Paul,

Sorry for not very precise report.
Actually automatic suspend is disabled on my gnome3 system, and no other option for auto power saving are not set by me.
Anyway system get "sleep" after certain time and after awaking this problem occurs.

Actually other application also not working after resume.

I am experiencing this on my two machines (laptop and desktop) for long time and hoped it will be fixed with new update.

Exactly. Even trying play any wav mp3 or video file with vlc or other player will not produce any sound.
"Log-out Log-in" is not enough to fix this problem. Only restart helps.

There are at least 3 bug reports in debian which probably refer to same problem:
