No sound again at startup

[Jean-Gabriel1982]

Hello all,

I had to completely reinstall my system and I put Linux Mint Cinnamon (instead of Xfce) as my system shut down in 2-3mn instead of 5 seconds before ..
Then my problem was not resolved but I have a clean install 😄

I install again GO but I don't have any sound at startup.
When I go to Setting>Audio, GO completely freeze.
I force the closing and at re start, I have the sound ...

@Jean-Gabriel1982 Please repeat the steps mentioned in #855 (comment)

Yes I've just tried by
Systemctl stop --user pasuspender.socket and service ...

My organ is gone and it seems installation of GO is new .. I have to completely reinstall my organ, keyboards, expressive pedal etc ...

[Jean-Gabriel1982]

I opened my last used organ (Caen) and after another one ..

Caen is not closed and I can play with both organs at the same time.

I thought GO close an organ when user opened new one ..

Ok after re start everything (except sound) become normal

@Jean-Gabriel1982 Does grandorgue hang on load? Does sound work?

[Jean-Gabriel1982]

@oleg68 No it doesn't work at startup.
It seems it works when I close GO and restart it .. but not each time.

1. run

systemctl --user stop pulseaudio

2. Run GrandOrgue
3. Go to File->Settings->Audio
4. Post the screenshot here
5. Click to Change
6. Post the device list here

[Jean-Gabriel1982]

1. Warning: Stopping pulseaudio.service, but it can still be activated by: pulseaudio.socket

2. Running GO after closing it => sound works

3. and 4.
   

4. and 6.

1. Warning: Stopping pulseaudio.service, but it can still be activated by: pulseaudio.socket

Do the both:

systemctl --user stop pulseaudio.socket
systemctl --user stop pulseaudio.service

2. Running GO after closing it => sound works
3. and 4.

Are they your speackers or headphones connected with hdmi? I cann't see any analog connection among the device list.

1. Deselect 'PA' and 'Jack
2. Set 48000 instead of 44100
3. Do not use default. Change the audio to 'rt: alsa: hw:HD Audio Generic, and test which number works.
4. After you find the correct working device, reduce 1024 to a lower number (512, 256, 128 etc) for a lower latency.
5. After GO works with pulseaudio stopped, restart pulseaudio and make a starting script with pasuspender as was described in No sound, no touchscreen calibration at startup #855

@oleg68 Thank you very much Oleg for your help.
Now I will keep the steps in my computer for next time 😄

Everything is good now.
Maybe the problem was the script I use at startup is the same we have used in #855 .. pasuspender was called and was not deselected in GO.

Now, PA and Jack are deselected and I use the rt: alsa: hw:HD Audio Generic 0 and it works well !
