There is a white-noise app called “Blanket” in the community repo. Since the latest Manjaro system update it doesn’t work. And neither does blanket-git from AUR. (But the flatpak version still works.)
It doesn’t display the sound options properly, and it doesn’t play.
This is what I get when I run it in terminal
