After doing that and rebooting the sound still plays fine - I assume, directly through ALSA since 'pactl list sink-inputs' displays nothing. I don't see any devices that would route the signal back to PA. > But it still boils down to a low-latency stream. In that case, I think, there's nothing we can do. The resampler does have latency, and we have documented it. Just don't use it if you need a lower latency.
