Hi, I have noticed a possible bug over the past ten days that pretty soon makes it impossible to do anything related to sound and then necessitates a reboot (complete with hard power button press). Here is what happened the last time (an hour ago) when I was forced to reboot: I got: After Stopping session c1 of User "xyz" (*) A stop job is running on session c1 for user "xyz" (+) A stop job is running for Manage Sound Card State (restore & state) After Stopped Login service, I get (-) A stop job is running for User Manager for UID yyyy (+) A stop job is running for Manage Sound Card State (restore & state) After Stopped Authorization Manager, I get (+) A stop job is running for Manage Sound Card State (restore & state) After about 2 mins, (*) and (-) get done (separately), and after about 6 min (+) gets done. However, I get a message: Waiting for process: alsactl, wireplumber, chromium-browse (not browser), pipewire and after a while (because I have already wasted close to 30 minutes if you add the time it took me to figure out the need to do a reboot), I give up and do a hard reboot. I wonder what the problem is. Note that I did shut down chromium-browser and firefox before reboot. I rebooted into the 5.16 kernel ten days ago. I am on a Dell XPS13 and do nightly updates. I also hibernate every night and usually do not reboot for weeks: I can not recall why I decided to reboot 10 days ago, but it must have been some oddity. My guess is that I was hibernating and waking for at least 20 days before that. Any suggestions? Let me know what additional information I can provide. If it is indeed a bug, what should I file under? Many thanks and best wishes, Ranjan _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
