Ubuntu 22.04

Before some months the sound only turned of after the Monitor had entered standby. That seems to be resolved, but it is still a bit unpredictable - the sound sometimes needs much loading time to fade in.

I run a really New, Bad hardware - ASUS PN mini computer with Celeron, hdmi or displayport - some videos on eg LinkedIn, News sites ... dont work for me, except in firefox all is fine.
My gut tells me, the UEFI of this PC is very shitty, too. So you needn't wory about me that much, I'll buy another PC anyway.

Hint: Before, sometimes I was able to reset by killing the Pulseaudio Process, there are much topics in Ubuntu Forums about such stuff

@rmstock Update: I just found out, starting a video in firefox enables sound playback, and you can go back to your opera video for watching with sound.

So maybe this is an easy way, than messing round in linux stuff. Just have a video open in a different browser.
