Hello,
Manjaro 16.06
Pulseaudio 8.0
I am having trouble getting any audio output from my sound card whenever
I switch sinks via pavcountrol to 'FFT...' equalizer sink.
$ pacmd list-sinks
3 sink(s) available.

See https://dpaste.de/hZRP for pactl list output
I see volume gain from the application and the equalizer sink in
PAVCONTROL but no audio coming out of the sound card. Am I missing
something?
I have somewhat similar situation with this person
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1315907#p1315907. I will
give his solution a shot and report back.
Regards
