LibreELEC (Leia) v8.90.006 ALPHA and PulseAudio

  • Hi,

    After updating from 8.2.5 to v8.90.006 I have faced a behavior change related to PulseAudio

    PulseAudio process is started by default after reboot.

    But PulseAudio quits if audio device is not used for afer playing music for a while.

    Consequentially, the one of the following options has to be used

    1. reboot
    2. systemctl start pulseaudio.service and re-selection of PULSE in audio setting is required

    'Keep audio device alive' is set to 1 minutes

    Is it an expected behavior? Bug? Keep audio device alive' as workaround?

    Kind Regards,

    Update the post with a full debug log and full details of the hardware/image used and it's possible we could look into it.

    Please provide a full debug log.

    How to post a log (wiki)

    1. Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging
    2. Restart Kodi
    3. Replicate the problem
    4. Generate a log URL (do not post/upload logs to the forum)

    use "Settings > LibreELEC > System > Paste system logs" or run "pastekodi" over SSH, then post the URL link

    Thanks for suggestions, the software problem is healed by starting PA in system mode

    #ExecStart=/usr/bin/pulseaudio --load="module-udev-detect"

    ExecStart=/usr/bin/pulseaudio --system --load="module-udev-detect"
