When I am using headphones and there is no sound for around five seconds, it starts popping in the left headphone. My laptop is a Teclast F7 Plus
Hi @Gauley, and welcome!
If it starts popping in either ear when you do something, I suggest an audiologist rather than the internet…
If, however, you mean the headphones pop, and it doesn’t happen normally, I think it’s the headphones or the headphones’ cable itself causing it.
@Mirdarthos It happens with all headphones, but it doesn’t happen on Windows. It happens once there is no sound playing for 5 seconds
Well, since my crystal ball is acting up, I, and I think anyone else trying to help, need moar information. To that end, please see:
- [HowTo] Provide System Information,
- [HowTo] Post screenshots and links,
- [HowTo] Request support, and
- [HowTo] Post command output and file content as formatted text.
Hope you manage!
Tip: 
To provide terminal output, copy the text you wish to share, and paste it here, surrounded by three (3) backticks, a.k.a grave accents. Like this:
```
pasted text
```
Or three (3) tilde signs, like this:
~~~
pasted text
~~~
This will just cause it to be rendered like this:
Portaest sed
elementum
cursus nisl nisi
hendrerit ac quis
sit
adipiscing
tortor sit leo commodo.
Instead of like this:
Portaest sed elementum cursus nisl nisi hendrerit ac quis sit adipiscing tortor sit leo commodo.
Alternatively, paste the text you wish to format as terminal output, select all pasted text, and click the </> button on the taskbar. This will indent the whole pasted section with one TAB, causing it to render the same way as described above.
Thereby improving legibility and making it much easier for those trying to be of assistance.
Additionally
If your language isn’t English, please prepend any and all terminal commands with LC_ALL=C
. For example:
LC_ALL=C bluetoothctl
This will just cause the terminal output to be in English, making it easier to understand and debug.
Please edit your post accordingly.
Most likely it is pipewire and the 5 sec idle pop when it suspends. Most soundcards suspend quietly, some not.
mkdir -pv ~/.config/wireplumber/main.lua.d/
nano ~/.config/wireplumber/main.lua.d/51-disable-suspension.lua
Then put this into it:
table.insert (alsa_monitor.rules, {
matches = {
{
-- Matches all sources.
{ "node.name", "matches", "alsa_input.*" },
},
{
-- Matches all sinks.
{ "node.name", "matches", "alsa_output.*" },
},
},
apply_properties = {
["session.suspend-timeout-seconds"] = 0, -- 0 disables suspend
},
})
Then restart pipewire:
systemctl --user restart pipewire.service
That config modfies this system config:
/usr/share/wireplumber/main.lua.d/50-alsa-config.lua

When I restart pipewire, I get this:
Failed to restart pipewire.service: Unit pipewire.service not found.
Ah well you use pulseaudio. There is a file called default.pa
in /etc/pulse/
. Copy it to ~/.config/pulse/
and edit it. Remove the line with load-module module-suspend-on-idle
or comment it by putting a #
in front of it. Then restart it:
systemctl --user restart pulseaudio.service
If that does not work, then no idea.
Thank you so much!
