 That works around the problem. The problem is still there in
 xfce4-mixer-oss though. But thanks for the suggestion, I didn't know
 about the -alsa version.
 Cheers,

It's not really a work around. oss is deprecated since a long time and alsa
is the default mixer variant. I don't know how oss survive suspend, but you
really should use alsa anyway.

I'm certainly using alsa but I had to use the oss emulation of
xfce4-mixer since early versions didn't support alsa.

xfce4-mixer uses alsa by default since 2 years (and version 4.2.3-2).
xfce4-mixer now has to backend, alsa and oss, and alsa variant should have
been installed automatically when upgrading from xfce4-mixer 4.2.3.

Do you think the patch is still needed? I don't think it'll apply to 4.4
anyway, so it'll need a refresh.

No you can drop it, but maybe we should more seriously deprecate the oss
version.

I don't use oss so can't reproduce here.
lsof | grep xfce4-mixer doesn't return anything obvious.

Can't you use alsa on your system?

I'm not talking about xfce4-mixer but about the panel plugin (right
click on the panel and add the Volume Control plugin.

How would I do that, the plugin only allows to select /dev/mixer as
device.

Install xfce4-mixer-alsa instead of xfce4-mixer-oss?
