Hello,
It happens on all applications with all kernels after 5.4. On first boot the audio works well, but after I suspend once, the crackling starts.
Kernel 5.4 works fine.
I replaced PulseAudio with PipeWire, but the issue remains.
Any ideas?
Hello,

Kernel 5.4 works fine.
I replaced PulseAudio with PipeWire, but the issue remains.
Any ideas?
Is it constant cracklin, or only a popping when going from no audio to starting playing audio?
It is constant, I would say it happens every 10-20 seconds when audio is playing.
did you installed also wireplumber instead of pipewire media session? check with:
pacman -Qs wireplumber
if its not installed, install it:
sudo pacman -S wireplumber
it will replace media session, reboot and see if it helped
Thank you, for the recommendation. I tried it, but the crackling is still there.

what exact model you are running, maybe there will be something in arch wiki
I can’t get any audio at all after installing WirePlumber, so unfortunately I can’t test this right now.
you forgot to mention this…

so install the pipewire media session, it will replace wireplumber, disable the power save as outlined above, reboot and see if it helped…
I did it, still no sound!
so switch back to pulse audio and try again…
Still, no audio. Spotify takes too long to load, YouTube does not start a video. In the audio menu in settings nothing is clickable.
did you added the power save config? if yes, remove it:
sudo rm /etc/modprobe.d/hda.conf
reboot
I had added it, and now removed it, but still there is no audio anywhere.
i have no idea whats happening here… try with the 5.4 kernel and see if it works there
Got back to 5.4 and it does not work. An empty terminal pops-up when the desktop loads, and some empty windows flash pretty quickly. Very weird.
sound like a messed up system … are you up to date?:
sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack 5 && sudo pacman -Syyu
boot into manjaro live usb, the latest comes with the 6.1 kernel, and just see if it has also audio issues
