Waking or stopping the pulse daemon briefly sets sound output device volume to 100%
- PipeWire version (
pipewire --version
): 0.3.75 - Distribution and distribution version (
PRETTY_NAME
from/etc/os-release
): Arch Linux - Desktop Environment: GNOME
- Kernel version (
uname -r
): 6.4.4-1-cachyos
Description of Problem:
Upon waking or suspending the pipewire-pulse daemon causes the current sound output device, which is snd_hda_intel powered, to jump to 100% volume, then drop back to its last set level. This even happens if I have DeaDBeeF playing currently through its recently added PipeWire output plugin. DeaDBeeF will be playing, then all of a sudden, the volume jumps to 100%, then back down again. Twice.
How Reproducible:
It happens every time. It may be an interaction with EasyEffects.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Start GNOME
- Start EasyEffects with a convolver that has -6 dB attentuation
- Have PipeWire set default output device to rear line output, volume reduced to about 50%
- Play some audio with DeaDBeeF through PipeWire output
- Trigger some system sounds or similar through paplay
Actual Results:
Volume jumps to 100% briefly, both when the paplay starts, and when it finishes playing.
Expected Results:
Volume should not jump up.

I found #3368 first before posting this issue, but thought my issue was different enough to suggest posting a new issue, rather than a reply to that one.
