Hi-
I have pulseaudio 0.9.15 and alsa 1.0.21 on Archlinux (x86_64).
Everything was working fine, but recently I started getting no sound in
pulse and - when I tried to debug - nothing in Alsa either. I have two
cards - an onboard nVidia device which I don't use, and a PCI
Soundblaster Audigy 2 which I use as my default. The problems may have
coincided with an upgrade of Alsa from 1.0.20 -> 1.0.21 but I can't be
sure.
I tracked down the exact problem, and it is that every time the pulse
daemon starts, it toggles an SPDIF output flag on my sound card's Alsa
setup. This effectively disables analog audio. I tried deleting the
contents of ~/.pulse in case it was restoring some remembered settings
each time, but no joy.
If I untoggle that setting after pulseaudio starts, everything is OK
(until next time pulseaudio starts, that is).
If anyone can cast some light on the problem or suggest something else I
can test, please do!
PA is probably simply configuring your card into the SPDIF
profile. Use a recent g-v-c or pavucontrol version, got to the
"Configuration" tab and select the profile you want to use for your card.

Hi Lennart-
I have pavucontrol 0.9.8 and in the Configuration tab, the selected
profile is "Output Analog Stereo + Input Analog Mono". Apologies, I
meant to include that info in the original mail.
