I have an odd issue with my new KDE Manjaro build (My old Gnome build is fine) where if I boot up with my USB Record Deck turned on then I get no sound at all, PulseAudio Volume Control hangs and KDE shows no devices at all.
If the machine is booted up already then turning on the Record Deck will then cause PulseAudio Volume Control to hang, but devices are already loaded. Turning it off makes it all wake up again.
I’m not sure what info would be most useful to enable help with this - To start with here’s an INXI (With the USB Record Deck switched off)…
