Comment # 11 on bug 1205640 from Antonio Larrosa

Interesting. (In reply to Bart Verhagen from comment #10)

That's interesting. I guess that means that `paplay
/usr/share/sounds/alsa/test.wav` ends running after ~8 seconds, right?

Can you run paplay as above and while it's running, execute this? :

pw-dump > pw-dump.log

You'll probably need to have the command prepared in another terminal since
you'll have less than 8 seconds to run it. You can check the log file is ok by
running `grep paplay pw-dump.log` . If it gives any output, then it's fine.

Please attach that log file here.

I guessed so, but at some point there have been reports about bugs with some
sound devices playing really soft (almost silent) even when volume was set to
the maximum level, so I wanted to check this wasn't such a case.

Good point, I forgot to mention a reboot was needed. If that didn't fix it, I
guess you can remove that file.
