Upgraded Ubuntu 19.10 -> 20.10 pulseaudio dynamic range compression plugin/sink stopped working after reboot (other than that pulseaudio is working) But if (after boot up) I kill the daemon manually from a terminal it auto restarts and the plugin/sink is loaded and working! I have a ~/.config/pulse/default.pa (the relevant lines are): [CODE] ## load ladspa module set-default-sink alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo .ifexists module-ladspa-sink.so .nofail load-module module-ladspa-sink sink_name=compressor-stereo plugin=sc4_1882 label=sc4 control=1,1.5,401,-30,20,5,12 .fail .endif # set our custom compressor audio as default set-default-sink compressor-stereo [/CODE] In the journal log this is the only error: [CODE] pulseaudio[1842]: Sink alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo does not exist. [/CODE] After a fresh boot the sinks look like this: [CODE] pacmd list-sinks | awk '/index/ || /name:/ || /alsa.card_name/ || /device.description/' * index: 2 name: <alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo> alsa.card_name = "HDA Intel PCH" device.description = "Built-in Audio Analogue Stereo" [/CODE] Then after a manual restart of pulse audio from a terminal (the problem is fixed -- but I have to do this every time I boot): [CODE] systemctl --user stop pulseaudio.service #(auto restarts) pacmd list-sinks | awk '/index/ || /name:/ || /alsa.card_name/ || /device.description/' index: 0 name: <alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo> alsa.card_name = "HDA Intel PCH" device.description = "Built-in Audio Analogue Stereo" * index: 1 name: <compressor-stereo> device.description = "LADSPA Plugin SC4 on Built-in Audio Analogue Stereo" [/CODE] I've tried putting a script in ~/.config/autostart to restart pulseaudio there... but that doesn't work. It only works from my terminal. Could it be some path or library variable? When I run env command I don't see anything special related to this. Also if that's the case why doesn't pulseaudio show an error related to it?
