Hi all,

a quick follow-up to my earlier post. I now rootcaused what exactly 
happens and wanted to share the results.

This turned out to be a bug in how PA handled the first iteration after
ALSA SUSPEND state. See the description in (and link to a PA12.2 patch to 
fix):
https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/issues/1000#issuecomment-508128140
https://github.com/kv2019i/pulseaudio/commit/0b3c52341d1d8d098f315302d6d3e1c40965493f

The affected code was reworked by Georg Chini's patch "alsa: Improve 
resume logic after alsa suspend" in PA master in March this year, so issue 
is already fixed. With 13.x release looming (and apparently bunch of other 
issues with S3 handling if streams are active), probably better for people 
to update to PA13 rather than take my point-fix to PA12.2.

Br, Kai
