I am having constant audio problems with my Audio Interface, a Focusrite Scarlett Solo 2nd gen. Even after a clean install with packages updated.
I am using Manjaro KDE on the latest LTS Linux kernel (5.10) with all the default packages updated.
I am having the following problems:
- Audio drops out or gets distorted when I click the “Audio Devices” button on my panel.
- Audio randomly drops out and the audio interface disappear from the list of audio devices. It only returns after a reboot.
- Audio is sometimes pitched differently.
- Other people sometimes hear me pitched differently.
- When the audio device disappears, applications using audio crash.
Output of `inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width`
