SUMMARY Pulse Audio Volume Control -> Configuration Tab This use to work and stop I believe a week back. I have a FiiO BTR5 DAC connected to the USB, after the computer comes out of sleep the device no longer show up and my DAC tells me it needs to reconnect. Now I have to turn off and on the device, or unplug from the USB and re-plug, this is very annoying. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Connect Fiio BTR5 to USB 2. Put computer to sleep. 3. Wake computer from sleep OBSERVED RESULT Fiio BTR5 connected to USB no longer shows in Pulse Audio Configuration tab, the audio no longer comes out of my headphone connected to the DAC, and DAC device says it need to reconnect. EXPECTED RESULT Connected USB device should show up and remain selected with the correct audio profile so my headphone continue to work.

Can you run 'pactl list sinks' and attach the output? That would help a lot
Created attachment 130890 [details] pactl log I just came out of sleep now and Pulse Audio Config. is showing me even less options today. It has been flaky like this for a while. I am using opensuse tumbleweed.

This causes the audio to stop working as I showed in the attached pic and I have go and set it to "Off". Where ever the FiiO BTR5 (headphone) not set to "Off" after some time the audio will just stop playing, this period seems to vary but eventually the audio goes silent.

Created attachment 130894 [details] Working config setting This is the only combination setting that seems to work, the others will stop playing any audio after a while for some reason?
Created attachment 130895 [details] Not working after a while The following config setting work for a little while, have a louder audio and I would like to see it not stop working after 1 minute?
Requested information was added with recent comments; changing status for inspection.
Is anyone looking into this? the problem still exists. Also you can ignore the bluetooth connection notes, I ended up disabling it so it doesn't just come up and cause connection problems.
I just checked and the problem has been fixed :-D, now Fiio BTR5 is getting detected coming out of sleep and on reboot. Also the loud cracking noise I experienced is gone during connection. Please close, thank you!
