Hi,
Just noticed (for the second time) that my plasma panel showed the volume muted, looking at the config it claimed 'no devices available'
Which is strange, as Audacious has been playing music all the time, and changing volume from audacious did nicely work.
The system log showed consecutive entries
Jan 28 17:17:52 lux rtkit-daemon[3305]: Successfully made thread 7348 of process 7348 (/usr/bin/pulseaudio) owned by 'pit' high priority at nice level -11.

This shows up every 15 minutes, with changing PIDs for pulsaudio. All the time PA had been running with another PID, from initial login.
I tried restarting pulseaudio (systemctl --user restart pulseaudio), which worked, but still no connection to the panel volume control.
For crosscheck I installed pavucontrol, and when I started it suddenly also plasma saw the device again.
All fine I thought, started playing music in audacious again - but now the Tray icon of audacious doesn't work. It pops up in the tray, when I start the program, but I cannot use it to control audacious, and when I start playing a song from the application, the tray icon still says 'no media playing'.
So something's broken - but what? Is it the panel, pulseaudio, rtkit, the communication bus?

I am experiencing this issue (panel with volume suddenly muted and showing "no devices available") from time to time after logout/login. So far I have no clue about the reason.
