So it is not about CPU consumption, pulseaudio is economical with CPU as is. Have you loaded the module module-suspend-on-idle? If nothing is playing (and your volume UI isn't showing), the output device should be burn any power. I was not successful with this shot (old syntax?):

2011-10-07 Thread Pierre-Louis Bossart
Watermark level and latency values are not restored when resuming, the values used prior to suspending are reused. This leads to side effects when underruns happen and buffer sizes are updated, PulseAudio can never meet lower latency requirements. Solution: keep track of watermark and latency
