Hi, Can anyone help understand this behavior on my system? 1. I try playing a 50 min file using paplay and it works perfectly fine 2. I try playing the following script and it works perfectly fine for ((i=0; i<5; i++)); do echo $i; aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav; sleep(1); done 3. I try playing the following script (without delay in-between each file playback) and it stops during 5th playback for ((i=0; i<5; i++)); do echo $i; aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav; done Somehow, if I change in /etc/pulse/default.pa, add "timeout=0" to module module-suspend-on-idle, the 3rd scenario also plays perfectly fine. Can anyone help explain what could be going wrong in 3rd scenario? And why setting timeout=0 solves the issue? Is setting timeout=0 the right solution? Thanks, Harsha
