I am not sure if this problem I noticed recently is related
or not. but I'll just throw it in the mix in case it jars some
memories.
running older snapshot (reason I haven't brought it up)
Planning to update to a newer one soon-ish.

Playing music (e.g., via mpg123) and notice the audio goes
silent after a short while. stopping and restarting audio player
does not help. Restarting sndiod does not help either.
However, in another tmux window, if cause an audible bell,
e.g., pressing tab at the start of a ksh prompt, with each bell
sounds i hear the audio bits.
Only thing that seems to restore audio is zzz->wake cycle,
but only for a short while.
