Package: tlp Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: jason.lee.quinn+deb...@gmail.com
Dear Debian Maintainer, There appears to be a severe sound issue affecting some users that may ultimately trace back to the tlp package. Please see the thread at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=243004 and in particular comment #7 by Toolfox. I vaguely remember fixing a problem with buster that turned out to be related to tlp. And then recently I upgraded to bullseye and faced the same problem. I had no sound at all. Nothing. But "fixed" the issue merely by uninstalling the tlp package. Upon reboot, sound was back so tlp is definitely preventing sound for some users. This is a beguiling bug to track down because there's few clues to follow and nobody suspects a power management package to ultimately be the cause of such a severe sound bug. The bug may be related to whether users are on battery or wall power as comment #7 explains. I almost always use wall power so it affected me. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-9-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages tlp depends on: pn hdparm <none> ii iw 5.9-3 ii lsb-base 11.1.0 ii pciutils 1:3.7.0-5 ii rfkill 2.36.1-8 ii usbutils 1:013-3 ii wireless-tools 30~pre9-13.1 Versions of packages tlp recommends: pn ethtool <none> pn tlp-rdw <none> Versions of packages tlp suggests: pn acpi-call-dkms <none> ii linux-cpupower 5.10.70-1 ii smartmontools 7.2-1
