After a time of powerdown, the decoupling capacitors have to charge to VDD/2 (that's what means "no signal" on output of amp) on power-return. This inevitably creates some sort of unwanted signal (=plop). You may drive the amp to GND-level before suspend by playing out minint or maxint samples (depends), on resume you would slowly ramp back to zero during maybe 0.5 sec so charging will be very smooth. Depending on the amp there might be meassures been taken in hardware to do the same, when setup and sequenced properly (on 8753 there are). I'll come back with more, when I read about it in the amp's specs eventually. Which audio output is it we talk about (hp, earphone, spk? BT even? GTA01/02?) /jOERG
