Correction. Rhythmbox froze during AND after the session was inactive,
making it permanently frozen (dead, defunct, useless). This is definitely
wrong. So its an issue with how gst (and by extension rhythmbox) handle
things, inappropriately in that case. But it was a problem.
This sounds as if some other process blocked the audio device when
switching back the session so that PA was unable to reopen the device
and thus playback stays suspended.
Could you please check this, by running "pactl" in a terminal when
this happens again, and then type "list-sinks"? If your sound card
sink remains in SUSPENDED state, than this is most likely the issue.
Or, you might have hit the well-known issue HAL where it fails to
restore ACLs sometimes and thus PA is not able to reopen the device
properly. Check getfacl /dev/snd/*
I will try to look into that, although I'm also seeing some freezes of rhythmbox
without the VT change which may be unrelated. Those clues will help I wasn't
aware of them.
