Audio not working after a recent update

I was having this same issue and I fixed it by disabling pluseaudio.service. However while this works, I now can’t control the audio through my keyboard keys. Also if you go into Settings > Sound it shows no output devices.

Is there a better way to fix this issue that doesnt break things?

EDIT: commenting out load-module module-suspend-on-idle seems to have fixed things.
