Xperia 10 III audio and video problems trigger after a period of time in use

Bug Reports
60

I can confirm that this is still happening to me in 4.6.0.13.
Because the different kinds of symptoms and observations are now spread over multiple threads, I’d like to re-iterate the categories of audio (routing) issues I’ve seen to make sure we’re on the same page:

audio routing: sink

  • after some time with headphones plugged in, the output suddenly comes through the speakers despite the headphones still being plugged in
    • I’ve never seen this mid-play of a song or audio track, only after stopping and resuming playback
    • headphone jack plug detection still works, because if you had different volume levels set for headphones and speakers, the volume level still gets toggled when (un)plugging the jack
  • alarm, usual case: when headphones are plugged in, the alarm sound is only played through headphones, not through speakers
    • all other Sailfish devices play the alarm sound through the speaker as well
  • alarm, special case: I just encountered a situation with headphones not being plugged in, where no alarm sound was played at all
    • the output of LANG=C pactl list is this:

    • this might be due to the alarm sink being configured to the headphone jack? I haven’t tried plugging in my headphones at that time to check.

audio routing: source

  • internal microphone not used in calls when headphones are attached
    1. have headphones plugged in, just plain headphones with a TTS plug and without a mic of their own
    2. get an incoming call and answer it
    3. sometimes (not always) it happens that you hear the other side well, but they cannot hear you.
    4. unplugging the headphone jack resolves the situation by activating the internal mic again

audio broken

  • after a while, starting/ resuming audio tracks won’t output any audio, neither via headphones nor speaker. The audio progress bar stays stuck
    • I’ve only encountered this with headphones plugged in
    • situation is recognisable by slight clicking noises in the headphones instead of the audio that is supposed to be played
    • situation not resolved by just unplugging the headphones

The restart pulseaudio Sailfish Utils trigger is not that great of a workaround as it requires all audio-emitting apps to be restarted again. But it is able to (temporarily) resolve all the situations I’ve described.
