It seems to occur when the phone is in "connected" state and you try to move the source away from the loopback module. Pacmd shows the bluetooth source as "SUSPENDED" while the source-output is "RUNNING". Doing the following triggers the problem: 1) insert a loopback module with source=your_phone 2) wait until the phone is no longer playing 3) with pavucontrol move the source of the loopback module to another device What is strange is that the messages start after the source has already changed. I inserted a few log statements in module-loopback.c and got: [bluetooth] module-loopback.c: Source Output detach bluez_source.00_12_D1_8C_FC_80 [pulseaudio] module-loopback.c: Source Output moving to alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo [alsa-source-VT1828S Analog] module-loopback.c: Source Output attach alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo [alsa-sink-USB Audio] module-loopback.c: Requesting rewind due to end of underrun. [alsa-sink-USB Audio] module-loopback.c: Requesting rewind due to end of underrun. ... Regards Georg
