why it doesn't unmute the media player?
I'm assuming you're using module-role-cork for this.
Yes, at least that's what I am think being new to this issue:)
If I had to guess at the issue (not being a VMWare user myself), the
vmware client might be holding open its audio stream indefinitely once
initialized. You can check this by starting and ending a call, then
looking at the list of current sink inputs:
$ pactl list sink-inputs
Again you guessed right, the stream stays open until I finally close the
vmware session. As you asked above whether I am using module-role-cork:
is there any alternative I could use that would work even with the
stream staying open? Like based on actual stream usage or so?
Thx
