I looked at this better today and found out that the reason the loopback
sound stops is that the pulseaudio servers exits. It thinks it is idle. It
looks like when some sounds go over loopback (or pavumeter) it is not
considered a usefull work (the message was: "core.c: We are idle,
quitting..."). But when some sounds go from some other apllication (like
e.g. xmms) or when pavucontrol is running then it is considered a usefull
work and the server does not get idle. This looks like a bug to me.
Streaming sounds over loopback is definitely usefull work for me.
Should this be reported as a bug?
Is there some workaround, some way to make pulseaudio server not to detect
idling?
One thing to try would be to rename your .pulse folder and relogin and
see if it still occurs. Probably not the problem but I reported a
crash last year when I tried to load the loopback module. It turns out
that since I had upgraded a couple of times (Fedora 8, 10, 12) that
some configuration cruft built up that the newer version of Pulse
didn't like.
Renaming .pulse did not help. My problem is probably somehting different.
Peter.
