Hi,
since last update today, i have no longer sound when using chromium (111.0.5563.64 (Offizieller Build) Arch Linux (64-Bit)).
VLC, Firefox, Opera and Vivaldi don’t have this problem - KDE sounds are also working.
Steps:
- Open chromium, play vid on YouTube - no sound
- pavucontrol shows chromium playing on the correct sound device
- restarting pulseaudio with
pulseaudio -korsystemctl --user restart pulseaudio.servicebrings back the sound immediately - close chromium, open again, play YT vid → sound gone again
- goto 4 - sound works again.
What i have tried so far:
sudo pacman-mirrors -f && sudo pacman -Syyu
already actual - so no change
rm -rf ~/.config/pulse and restart → no change
inxi -A (ASUSTek Xonar U7 MKII is main output)

I’m on testing branch since 2020 and never had any problems - i configured this somewhen during the pandemic - it worked right out of the box so i never touched the sound stuff again.
any clue?
thanks in advance!
